The Rotary Club of Fort Collins awarded Community Grants today to two non-profit service organizations located in the Fort Collins area. 

 
The Veteran’s Plaza of Northern Colorado was awarded $1,400 to fund the modifications needed for a display monitor housing in order to install a new monitor that displays the historical veteran information at the Veterans Plaza.  The old monitors were damaged during the Hyde Park fire and this grant allows the organization to begin their restoration effort to install monitors that will be better suited for the external environment...
 
 
 
The Fort Collins Children’s Theater was awarded awarded $3,000 to underwrite the cost of students, teachers, and chaperones from low-income schools to attend a special performance of their fall musical production at the Lincoln Center.  The Rotary Club of Fort Collins is pleased to support this program that helps introduce children, who may not have the opportunity to attend theater events, to “The Arts.”
 
These are the first Community Grant Awards by the Rotary Club Fort Collins under its new Quarterly Grant Program.  Complete details of the Grant program, eligibility criteria, application requirements, Grant categories, and upcoming submission dates for each category may be found at http://rotarycluboffortcollins.org/Page/community-grants.
