Spotlight on Grants
We are pleased to report that the Saratoga Rotary Charitable Foundation Board of Directors approved two grants in February totaling $12,300 to fund the following worthy projects:
- Saratoga Fire Protection District. Our grant of $7,300 will be used by to purchase a rebuilt engine for our Fire Protection District’s historic 1938 Ford Model A Fire Engine, which be installed by Saratoga community volunteers. The classic fire engine has been out of commission, but we hope to see it with its new engine at the Art Show.
- Institute for the Study of Western Civilization. Our grant of $5,000 will provide scholarships for local teachers to take University-level accredited courses at the Institute covering the history, art, culture, challenges, and achievements of Western civilization.
With the grants made in August and November, this brings the total amount of grants made by the Foundation during the current fiscal year to $48,096. This is all made possible by your hard work in planning and putting on the Art Show and your donations to SRCF. Thank you for helping to make a positive impact on our community!
