Rotary Welfare Funds Available
Posted by Tim Brophy
It is time once again to distribute monies collected by the Sergeant at Arms to worthy non-for-profit organizations in the Joliet community.
 
The Welfare Committee is beginning the process of disbursing the funds raised last year by the Sergeants At Arms, Diane Habiger and Jackie McTee. These funds are traditionally given to local social agencies with monetary requests between $500 and $1000. We ask Rotarians to be willing to sponsor a non-for-profit organization and submit a legitimate request for funds. If you wish to submit a request all that is needed is a brief description of what the funds would be used for, which Rotarian is sponsoring the request, and the amount requested.

These requests can be emailed to either

dianehabiger@gmail.com or jmctee60435@yahoo.com

All requests must be received no later than September 01, 2017.
