The Port Huron Rotary Club embarked on the new year with purpose, unveiling a revised grantmaking strategy during a meeting led by President Emily Vinckier-Pierce. The club’s service and foundation committees sanctioned two $2,500 grants for the Port Huron Old Newsboys and Blue Water Area Rescue Mission. The Rotary Foundation will now prioritize basic needs support alongside continued funding for youth programs.
While the first grants have been allocated, additional funds remain available for local organizations. Nonprofits are encouraged to apply through the Grant Application.
The Rotary Foundation sustains its annual grant program through its endowment fund and the upcoming Three Grand Slam fundraising event on February 2nd. Attendees not only contribute to the local community but also stand a chance to win $3,000 at this year’s event.
