Rotarians from five local Districts in our area have joined together to send a Rotary International Disaster Relief Fund grant of $125,000 to Ukraine. This Grant will be administered in partnership with Rotarians in Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, to provide humanitarian assistance to a medical shelter by supplying beds, mattresses, blankets, linens, pillows, and other necessary items.
The application process included a District in Northeastern Pennsylvania, all three Districts of New Jersey, and one in southern New York State - our District 7230.
Past District Governor Mary Ellen Bentler from Rotary District 7410 in Pennsylvania and NJ Past District Governor Ray Freaney spearheaded the effort along with the support of the districts and their leadership.
If you wish to know more or contribute to these efforts, please contact District 7230 Rotary Foundation Committee Chair PDG Mary Shackleton
