The Rotary
Club of Healdsburg makes
every effort to direct its
contributions where they
have the greatest impact
while addressing the most
critical needs. We receive
far more requests than there
is money available and acknowledge
up front that we are unable
to fund every worthy endeavor.
As a general rule, we will
not make contributions to:
- Churches
or religious organizations
for purpose of religious
advocacy.
- Funding
for individuals.
- School
programs or projects which
benefit one individual
versus a group of students
- Unrestricted
operating funds.
- An
ongoing commitment.
- Any
pending controversial
public measure.
