The club foundation does so much work so quietly, you may have missed some of this!
Next week, Mike Meyer might tell us just more regarding all his continued work along with other Rotarians for Operation Rotary Cares in partnership with Feed the Children. Our foundation's budget to support that ongoing work including the storage facility is approximately $11000 per year.
The other items that have been cooking in the background are as follows:
1) Dick Bond memorial scholarships ($4500) to be finalized in April and announced in May
2) Community Grants ($10000) to be finalized in April and announced in May/June
3) SMSD Tree grant ($5000) - already paid- contribution made in March
4) Joint Rotary Courthouse Tree Grove Project ($5000)- designated and working with club members for 1:1 match up to $5000
5) Polio Plus contribution ($5000) - and leveraged up with every matching fund grant that our crew could find!!
...And foundation president Tim Steele says this has been "in the background." Some "background", we think!
