When Roswell Rotarians donate to the Rotary Foundation, our donations return to District 6900 and us after three years in the form of grants that can support our projects and endeavors.  The most basic of these is the Standard District Grant which each club in the District can apply for and receive each year. 

This year, the recipient of our grant is the Unity Garden at the Chattahoochee Nature Center.  For almost 12 years now, produce grown in the Unity Garden has been donated to North Fulton Community Charities to provide fresh food to many needy families in our community. This bounty amounts to 8 - 10 tons of food each year!  Our grant donation will allow the Nature Center to purchase replacement tools badly needed after 11 years in operation as well as seed which has seen price increases similar to most everything we buy. 

We will hear from our friends at the Chattahoochee Nature Center this week, one of many local charities and non-profits that benefit from the fundraising proceeds of our annual Golf and Tennis Tournaments. 

Another of the remarkable efforts of the Nature Center is the rehabilitation of injured wildlife and birds of prey. 

You don’t want to miss the special feathered guest that will join us this week.  See you Thursday!
