Hutchinson Rotary Club donates $20,000 to 15 non-profit organizations
Fifteen Reno County non-profit organizations are recipients of $20,000 in grants from the Hutchinson Rotary Club.
The grant presentations were made Monday at the club’s noon meeting held in the Stringer Fine Arts Theatre on the Hutchinson Community College campus.
Funds for the annual grants are generated by interest accrued from a Rotary Endowment fund, with the bulk of the money raised during the club’s 26 yearly meetings.
It is called “Special Recognition,” a light-hearted part of every regular meeting where Rotarians are fined for a variety of reasons, all in jest, which can create laughter at each of the Monday gatherings.
