CAAHT Rotary applied for three (3) District grants and are excited to announce that we have been awarded all three by the District 5710 Grant committee!!
Grant 1 - Rotary Cares kits for Intersection to Care (ITC) project women leaving incarceration. We will have $37,50 ($1250 from our club dues + $2,500 from District grant fund) to make 65 Care kits for women participating in the ITC program.
Grant 2 - Dignity Kit Global Grant for girls and women in Uganda. We are contributing $500 of our allocated grant money to Jennifer Montgomery's proposed project in Uganda. This project will purchase sewing machines, teach women and girls to sew reusable menstrual kits and incudes community education. Jennifer will be our speaker at a future meeting and tell us more about this project.
Grant 3 - "New Beginnings - Postpartum Care kits for Mothers." This project will provide necessary items for new mothers who lack the financial means to provide them. As part of this grant, we ask that members donate a small book appropriate for an infant. We plan to make 50 care kits.
