We potentially have funds available throught The Rotary Foundation Matching Grant Program to help support various medical work around the world. If you and/or your club would like to get involved please let me know.

Typically $1 donated to Rotaplast International results in $7 worth of medical supplies and services being donated to the cause. That is a great return on investment in my opinion!!
