Rotary Club of Rancho Bernardo raises funds for distance learning needs at Title I elementary schools in PUSD.
Christine Testa, a speech therapist at Pomerado Elementary School, told her father about the distance learning needs her students were encountering. Alan Turner,
Christine’s father and membership chair for the Rotary Club of Rancho Bernardo began to raise funds specifically for distance learning needs at Title I elementary schools in PUSD.
In a short time, Alan raised funds from Rotary members. Mike Fuqua, the president of the Club’s Foundation provided an additional matching gift. Together they have donated over $6,000 to the PUSD Foundation specifically for students and families in need of hotspots, Internet access, headphones and other equipment to help ensure students are able to learn and work at home.
