Newport Rotary received funding for its 2016-17 District Grant from The Rotary Foundation. A $1,000 check was presented to Club Rotary Foundation Chair Pam Wall at the District Rotary Foundation Luncheon in Wilmington, NC on August 27, 2016. The Grant will provide funds to purchase a Cooking Range, install a Hood Top at the Matthew 25 Fund Food Pantry in the St. James Thrift Shop Building in Newport. The total $2,000 project will also fund a celebration dinner for identified needy families identified by the Food Pantry during the Thanksgiving season.
