Palatine Rotary accepting applications for donations

The Rotary Club of Palatine is accepting applications from local community organizations for possible donations from the club’s annual allocation program.

Organizations applying for funding should support the Palatine community directly and be tax exempt under Section 501(C)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. All applications will be considered for funding, but funding is not guaranteed.

Money to be distributed was raised during the club’s 2023 Oktoberfest celebration.

“We had an excellent Oktoberfest this year allowing us to meaningfully support organizations that serve the people of our community,” said club President Melissa Gardner. “It’s a great feeling to be part of an organization that can give back so much, especially when so many families and individuals are in need of assistance.”

Applications are due by Jan. 15. Forms are available online at palatinerotary.org. Applications also can be emailed to allocations@palatinerotary.org. Printed copies can be mailed to Rotary Club of Palatine Allocation Committee, PO Box 412, Palatine, IL 60078.
