With two additional donations received last week: $3000 from the Jackson Rotary Club and $7000 from the Rotary Club of Porterville, in District 5230 - the donations to the District 5190 Community Fund for Fire Relief now exceed $100,000! While the needs continue to be felt in our fire-ravaged communities, the generosity of Rotarians and non-Rotarians is heartwarming.
DISTRICT 5190 ROTARIANS - PEOPLE OF ACTION
Our district covers over 96,000 square miles of Northeastern California and Northern Nevada, and is home to 60 unique Rotary and Rotaract Clubs.

FIRE DISASTER RELIEF INFORMATION/FORMS
Thanks to Chico Rotary for their gift of $3000! Very generous. And Minden Rotary contributed another $1750 to the District Community Fund for Caldor Fire victims.
Susanville Rotary’s check for $26,497.32 has been received, representing the fundraising efforts of the Sierra Radio Network’s fundraising events in Susanville and Chester. The funds are directed to the victims of the Dixie Fire.
The Reno Rotary Foundation just contributed $10,000 to our district fire response effort! Thanks, Reno Rotary!
Total contributions to the District 5190 Community Fund for fire response have totaled over $75,000. Add that to the GoFundMe pages for the Dixie and River Fires, we have raised over $150,000.
On October 18, 2021, the Rotary Club of Greenville held their first fundraising/community event since the Dixie Fire destroyed the town of Greenville on August 4, 2021. Two Rotarians, one prospective member, and two appreciated volunteers worked in the first snow of the year and temperatures to chill the bone. This year's drive through clinic was moved from Greenville to Crescent Mills due to the fire damage.

We recently received $5900 from the Rotary Club of Lincoln in District 5180 to benefit victims of the Dixie, Caldor and other fires. The Community Fund fire response fund total is now over $33,000! Gift cards of $500 each are being provided for approved fire victim applicants and are being hand-delivered by Rotarians as one way of helping victims with their immediate needs such as food, gas and clothing.
Thanks to the Rotary Club of China Lake and their charitable foundation for the recent contribution of $3000 to the District 5190 Community Fund to benefit fire victims in our District! What a great show of Rotary support!
We heard that Plumas County radio held two events in Susanville and Chester to raise funds for the Dixie Fire victims. $29,000 is being contributed to our Rotary district community fund to be distributed to those in need! Thanks to Plumas County residents for helping their neighbors in need.
Because of Covid, many clubs are just starting to plan and conduct service projects in their communities, and District Grant funds are available to assist. The District Grant completion date has been extended to the end of the Rotary year, June 30th with final reports due July 15th.
This means that there is more time to apply for a District Grant which will match your club up to $2000 for a single club project! If your club partners with another club, an extra 25% will be added to the match! But wait, there's more: Bonus Grant dollars are available recognizing your club's contribution to the Annual Fund (which is the source of our grant funds) and no club matching dollars are needed.
Qualified clubs can apply for District Grants on the District website by clicking on the link below

Rotary Zone 26/27 has compiled a listing of possible sources to aid with on-line fundraising for clubs.
NOTE: These are examples of online platforms clubs can use for various types of events. There are many platforms available, so it is important to do your own research to determine which platform is best for your event. This list is not meant to be comprehensive and is NOT an endorsement for any platform or product. Rather, these are examples of what platforms are available. Some charge for their services and some are free. For the paid services, such as the online event and auction platforms, make sure you examine and compare all services and costs, including subscription costs, user fees, transaction fees, credit card fees, and availability of support. It is up to you to determine whether these events are legal in your area. Submit platforms you have found useful to virtualfundraising@zone2627.org.
