On March 2nd, at our club’s evening meeting, members of the Rotary Club of Fort Collins held a service project at SpeedPro of Fort Collins and Northern Colorado where we repackaged 1,310 pairs of womens, girls, and boys underwear to donate to Homeward Alliance. Spearheaded by member Kathy Hawkins, this project was funded through a $1,000 District Grant from Rotary District 5440 and $1,000 from our own club’s Charities Community Service budget which is generously funded by club members. Thank you to everyone who showed up and to everyone who continues to donate to our club’s charitable efforts.

These 10 energetic Rotarians recently re-wrapped over 8,600 diapers for the Nappie project.  These will be distributed through the Food Bank to families in need. 

Community Grants awarded a $2,500  Health and Welfare grant to Larimer Court Supports to fund their new Sober Wellness Project.  This project will help approximately 150 clients in their Problems Solving Courts.  Problem Solving Courts have been shown to be an effective means of reducing substance abuse, managing mental illness, increasing the likelihood of remaining in recovery, and reintegrating into communities as productive and contributing members.  PSC also reduces jail and prison costs.
