Carbon Valley Rotary recently presented a $1,035 check to the local chapter of the I Have a Dream Foundation for use at their discretion. The funds were raised through the club’s weekly “Happy Dollars” tradition of over a period of several months.
Pictured here is Rotary club president Leisl Athen presenting the check to Aurora Santos and Tyler Works of the I Have A Dream Foundation.
The club is focused on Literacy for Youth in the Carbon Valley area and the I Have A Dream Foundation is a prime example of their literacy campaign. The club’s other youth literacy projects include Dictionaries for 3rd Graders, Free Little Libraries established throughout the community, age-appropriate books at their annual Easter Egg Hunt, and free books at community events.
