AFS Club news:
The club plans to continue its Alphabet Soup Service Project in which members read to children and lead them in craft activities before dinner at a hunger center at St. Luke's Church in Cleveland. They then go upstairs and eat dinner, family-style, with the people who come for the meal. The parents of these children, of necessity, have other concerns than reading enrichment and the extra personal attention these children receive through this activity.
