Matching Grant Opportunity – SHELTER BOX
Rotarian Greg Krauska (Chanhassen Rotary Club) and DG Jim Nelson, pictured here in front of a Shelter Box, want to encourage all clubs to engage the youth of their communities to raise funds for ShelterBox in order to maximize the $10,000 in matching funds for ShelterBox that the District local grants committee has set aside.
Click on the documents here to get the details of the matching grant opportunity, get some ideas for fundraising, and learn more about ShelterBox.
To summarize the program:
- Partner with a youth group and get them to raise at least $250.
- Match their donation with at least another $250
- Send the check(s) to ShelterBox HQ using the form attached.
Due date: We need at least $10,000 received by district clubs by December 1st to qualify for the full $10,000 grant, so don't wait! Our final deadline to determine the allocation of the match between District 5950 clubs is February 1st.
