The recent devastation of the Haitian earthquake tragedy has prompted Rotary to take action.
Our Rotary District has established the District 7980 Haitian Emergency Earthquake Relief Fund as part of our District Foundation.
Here is a link to the page: https://go.rotary7980gives.org/haitian-relief-fund
Many Rotarians and others in our community have expressed an interest in helping, and this is one vehicle to do so. The tragedy caused by the massive earthquake is still unfolding, and the needs on the ground are still being assessed. We will direct all funds collected to where the greatest needs of the affected area(s) are. Where possible, we will leverage grants from The Rotary Foundation to increase the power of our donations and support.
Additionally, a brief message from Rotary District Governor Rick Bassett can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thVkjTWUG4M
Thank you all for considering contributing to this important effort.
