Eagles makes second Empowering donation this year
GREENVILLE – Greenville Fraternal Order of Eagles 2177 presented a
donation check to Empowering Darke County Youth recently. Noting the
importance of supporting today’s youth, this was the organization’s

The fraternal organization has a long history of actively supporting
young people, from college scholarships for graduating seniors to the
Empowering tutoring programs.
“We are currently enrolling students in our After School Program,” said
Bob Robinson, Program Coordinator. “Our goal is to make sure we have no
waiting list this year… this donation goes a long way to helping us
reach that goal.”
“We support a wide variety of nonprofit community service
organizations,” Erica Price, Eagles treasurer, said. “This one is
especially important because the kids we’re helping are our future.”
Membership in the Eagles is open to the public. Applications can be
obtained at 113 E. Third Street. The organization also provides a
variety of services and events to the public, including daily breakfast
and lunch.
