This Tuesday, February 7th, we hear from Harriet Downer, District Visioning Chair. She will share the results of our recent club satisfaction survey and set the stage for club visioning scheduled for Saturday, February 25th.
Charlotte Tyson, President of the Longmont Charity Fund opened the annual meeting. The Longmont Charity Fund (LRCF), was started in 1982 by visionary Rotarians. The Charity Fund is a tax exempt structure for donations from local Rotarians and Friends of Rotary, designed to establish an endowment fund from which contributions can be made to local human services organizations in the name of Longmont Rotary. The tax exempt (501 c(3)) organization allows for tax deductible donations. The functions of the Charity Fund include: 1) an Endowment – Sustainable funding for the future needs of the community and 2) Current Needs – Help meet the present needs of the community.
Edwina Salazar, Charity Fund member and Charlotte provided a summary Community Giving for 2022 which totaled $18,975 in grants. The supporting Rotary programs and projects include Young RYLA Camp and RYLA, the Winter Warmth Coat Drive, Born to Read Program, Boy Scouts Casa de la Esperanza, A Way Forward, El Comité de Longmont and our club Fishbowl. Additionally, LRCF contributed funds that were matched with Rotary District Funds. Our last grant was to Elder Share. The Charity Fund provided $3,000 which was matched from the 5450 District Funds totalling $6,000 to Elder Share, a program through Community Food Share that supports the nutritional needs of older adults. .
President Wein read a Thank You note from Dr. Marny Eulberg, the Rotary District Polio Committee Chair.
