SUPPORTING SPECIAL OLYMPICS–The Rotary Club of Red Bud partnered with ComWell to apply for a Rotary Foundation grant to support ComWell’s Special Olympic athletes. Pictured are some of the Rotarians and Special Olympic athletes at a recent event.
Rotarians in Red Bud received a Rotary Foundation grant to support ComWell’s Special Olympic athletes and program, to which the club also contributed to.
Since the Rotary Club of Red Bud was chartered in 2006, it has donated more than $53,000 to the Foundation through local fundraisers and club member donations. The Foundation then sends a portion of its proceeds back to local districts, which in turn set criteria for clubs to use in applying for funding needed in the community.
This year, the Rotarians of Red Bud partnered with ComWell to apply for the district grant to receive the funding needed to support ComWell’s Special Olympic athletes.
