Charitable Contributions

Ever since the East Greenwich Rotary Club was founded in 1963, funds have been kept in two accounts. Operating funds (badges, guest dinners, newsletter, etc.) are financed entirely by member dues. All others monies earned (The East Greenwich Telephone Book, The Citrus Sale, etc.) are put into the Rotary Charity account from which contributions to worthy causes and organizations are made. A partial list of these contributions are shown here:
