rotary club awards grants to 18 local organizations<\/p>\n

This year, the Rotary Club of Snowmass Village awarded grants to 18 Roaring Fork Valley organizations. In total, the Rotary donated $42,000 to a variety of local nonprofits including Aspen Youth Center, Bridging Bionics, The Buddy Program, Challenge Aspen and more.<\/p>\n

Funds for the grants were raised at the Rotary\u2019s annual fundraiser, the Snowmass Wine Festival that is held every September. The event in 2019 set a fundraising record thanks to donors and volunteers, allowing the club to grow overall support for local organizations, college scholarships and international programs to $125,000.<\/p>\n

Many of the grants will go toward assisting and supporting the wide-range of benefits that local nonprofits provide for the valley. From youth programming and mentorship to environmental education and mental health support, the grants wish to aid the Roaring Fork Valley\u2019s multi-faceted community.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur Rotary Club is greatly appreciative of the enormous support we receive from our community for our annual Wine Festival that enables us to give these grants to so many important nonprofit organizations in the Roaring Fork Valley,\u201d said Tom Fridstein, president of the Rotary Club of Snowmass Village.<\/p>\n

The Snowmass Wine Festival fundraiser will return to Snowmass Sept. 11 to 12.For more information about meetings and\/or membership, see the Rotary\u2019s website at portal.clubrunner.ca\/3290, or contact president Tom Fridstein at tfridstein@sedgco.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
