SPECIAL “COVID-19 DISTRICT GRANTS”
Effective April 2, 2020
 
The program has been an overwhelming success! Through yesterday, 29 clubs received grants totaling $40,050.  Our District Grants DDF is now totally exhausted for the rest of this Rotary year (ending June 30th).
 
District leadership will analyze the success of this Special COVID-19 District Grant program and determine if we should institute another program beginning July 1st for those clubs that were unable to obtain a grant under this recent program. That decision may not be made until June. 
 
There may be funds available through the Colorado COVID Relief Fund: https://covrn.com/covid-relief-fund/

4/27/20:  Rotary International and Rotary District 5450 Continue to Monitor the Global Coronavirus Crisis
 
For Rotary District 5450, the health and safety of our members will always be our top priority.  With the elimination of in-person meetings, many of our clubs are conducting regular virtual meetings and are exploring other ways to communicate with their members and to keep them engaged.  In addition, Rotarians and Rotary Clubs are constantly finding no ways to help their communities through these trying times. Read here how Clubs in District 5450 are keeping in contact with their members and helping their communities during this crisis.
 
As our state and local governments begin reducing restrictions and eliminating stay-at-home orders, we recommend that club leadership error on the side of caution when deciding to begin in-person meetings to help keep our members, and our communities, healthy and safe.
 
Read here how Rotary International is responding to the impact of the global COVID-19 crisis.  Rotary is closely monitoring updates and recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to ensure the safest and most appropriate actions are taken by and for our members and the communities they serve.
 
Yours in Rotary,
District Governor Curt Harris

DISTRICT 5450 CONFERENCE
03.12.2020: This event has been postponed due to recent developments concerning the COVID-19 outbreak.
 
The District has come to the unavoidable conclusion that it would be irresponsible for us to continue to plan for a conference that members’ health and safety demand they not attend. For those that have registered, refunds will be processed in the next few days.
