In our Club Assembly last Friday, one of the topics discussed as the PVP Rotary Foundation.
Applicants can submit the Grant Request Form any time during the year. No program or applicant is guaranteed they will automatically be approved for funding even though there may be a history of past funding. Guidelines include that the recipient must be a non-profit organization; must service South Bay residents; funds to be used for a specific project (not for general funds); and Rotary given appropriate recognition. The Foundation can act as a "conduit" for suitable projects when a specific fundraiser is targeted to a specific cause - e.g., Educator of the Year funds are used for scholarship and education related projects.
We have received an application for membership from Marco Mendoza. Marco is the Managing Director of IFC Advisors in Los Angeles and is a resident of Rolling Hills Estates since 2012. He is married with two children.
Since it was founded more than 100 years ago, The Rotary Foundation has spent more than $4 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects.
