On Tuesday, May 6, 2025, six dedicated members of the Rotary Club of Bedford proudly participated in Habitat for Humanity of Greater Lowell’s 17th Annual Women Build Week. This inspiring initiative, held from May 3–9, brought together women from all walks of life to lend their strength and skills toward creating safe, affordable housing for local families in need.Our team provided critical women-power to help construct two new condominiums at the 70 Boston Road site in Westford, a historic 1865 barn that is being transformed into two net-zero, solar-ready homes. Each unit will include three bedrooms and two bathrooms, ultimately housing approximately ten individuals. During this stage of construction, our members worked on framing the bedroom walls—an essential step in bringing these homes closer to completion.
Each May, Rotary International celebrates Youth Service Month, recognizing the power and potential of young people around the world. At the Rotary Club of Bedford, youth service is more than a theme—it’s a year-round commitment to helping young people grow as leaders, learners, and citizens.
On May 1, from 5 to 7 PM, a group of dedicated volunteers from the Bedford Science Center, including Ralph, Al, Victor, and several others, gathered at the Lane School's Science Center room for critical life-saving training. Assisting them were two Bedford EMT staff members from the Fire Department—one of whom, in a full-circle moment, was once a student of Ralph’s when he taught fifth grade at the former Bedford Center School, now the site of the Council on Aging.

When a tractor-trailer backs up to the Middlesex Community College loading dock late this week, it will mark the real beginning of Bedford Rotary’s Hope for the Hungry 2025. Little more than a day later, the truckload it carries from Meals of Hope will be the centerpiece of meal assembly by dozens of volunteer meal-packers.
