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. 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.
Don't forget! The application for members to nominate a potential new Joliet Rotary Club member, is available in the DOWNLOAD FILES section of the e-Wheel newsletter and the Joliet Rotary Club website at www.jolietrotary.com
