The Rotary Club
of Dingley Village recently had the pleasurable task of presenting cheques to
seven local groups who were recipients of our Community Grants Program. Our fundraising efforts allow us to put
money back into the local community by way of grants, which we
advertise. At the closing date we had
received a substantial number of applications for various worthwhile
community projects and funding was awarded to the following groups – §
Dingley Village Neighbourhood House §
Dingley Village Community Advice Bureau §
Little Villagers Child Care Centre §
Stanford Theatre §
Abbeyfield Society Dingley Village §
Tiara Project §
Cheltenham Scouting Group. Representatives
from each group attended a recent Rotary Meeting to receive their grant
cheque and talked about their specific project for which the grant was
assigned. Projects covered a diverse
range of needs including stackable seat trolleys, laptop computer, high chairs,
production of a play to raise money for charity, a garden shed, a bbq and
debutante dresses for disabled teenage girls.
We wish to thank all groups who applied and we hope that our fund
raising this year will be successful so that we can continue with the
Community Grants program next year. |
