Grant Program Overview

Our club foundation recently granted an unprecedented amount of $130,000 in one-time donation to three local organizations! On April 4th, we will be hearing from the grantees on how the funds are being utilized and the impact these funds are making in our own community. This is in addition to the ~$180,000 we are already spending on various projects and organizations this Rotary year. It will be a memorable and historic time for our club and community!
