Summary: Partner with the YMCA to help the development and growth of youth in the Treasure Valley.
The project is to pay the fees for disadvantaged youth to participate in programs provided by the YMCA. Rotarians will work directly with "Y" staff to identify children and match them to appropriate programs. Boise Rotary club will volunteer with the "Y" to help get Camp Horse Thief ready for campers to arrive. Activities might include clearing up winter debris and cleaning cabins.

Project listed for the 2023-24 Rotary Year.

Your project description is very vague. Is your project to pay the fees for youth who might otherwise not have access to the Y's programs? If so, then saying this specifically would provide more clarity in your application. District grants require active Rotarian participation and in your narrative you say "Our intention would be to participate with the students in the program, but it is unclear at this time if that will be possible (due to training requirements, youth protection guidelines, etc)." I think you need to know up front how Rotarians can and will participate. We wouldn't want to have to ask you to return the grant because in the end there was no Rotarian participation. Is there another project for you that could assure this component of a grant project?

Your 2023-24 district grant project will be included in D5400's block grant application to The Rotary Foundation in July. Do not place orders or spend money on the project until you hear from the district that TRF has approved our block grant, as you cannot be reimbursed for expenses incurred prior to TRF approval. The committee is concerned about your commitment to fulfilling the volunteer component of your project. Please make sure you schedule volunteer activities to remain in compliance. Call Marianne at 208 308-5617 if you have any questions. Thank you!

Please do not reply to this email. You should have received your grant by now, mailed to your club’s mailing address Aug. 11. We are using a bill payer service this year, and the envelope will look different than in the past. Please tell your treasurer to watch for it, and not to discard. Please call me if you don’t have your check (208) 308-5617. Ignore the physical address on the check – D5400 is still PO Box 9592, Boise, ID 83707.
