What is FLAG?

News 4 San Antonio on Twitter

The Stone Oak Rotary Club is serious about helping the community by directly reaching out to “at risk” children. One of the projects the Rotary Club is most passionate about is “FLAG” (Fitness, Literacy, Attendance & Grades).

“FLAG” was highlighted by the Rotary International President Gary C.K. Huang during his January 2015, San Antonio visit. “FLAG is an example of what Rotary is about all about”, says Stone Oak Rotary Club’s member Margaret Porter. Porter, along with her Rotary Club started this program in 2013 with Walzem Elementary School and it has since grown to include East Terrell Hills Elementary School. The Rotary Club has kept up the commitment to donate to each school (14) bikes, helmets and locks (2) per grade, to both boys and girls.

It is a window of opportunity of historic proportions.
