U District Rotary Club Awards Nearly $100K in Community Grants Since January 2023

March 28, 2024

The U District Rotary Club was founded in 1939 to meet unmet community and world needs by combining the diverse talents and skills of the community to be positive agents for change. U District rotarians are over 100 volunteers strong and have supported a variety of important community projects over the past 14 months.

One of the recent investments was in improved cleaning equipment to help the UDP more efficiently address litter, fall leaves and snow removal. The U District Rotary Club has also invested in facilities and equipment for UHeights, the Ronald McDonald House, Solid Ground, and the Elisabeth Gregory Home. Other community investments include: lighting/placemaking grants in the U District and Christmas gifts for at-risk youth through the University Family YMCA.
