This program is among the oldest activities of Club 31, tracing its roots to the 1920's when food and clothing were given to needy students. Through this committee, The Denver Rotary Club Foundation provides grants annually to approximately 40 economically disadvantaged Denver high school juniors and seniors. The objective of the grants is to provide financial assistance as well as mentorship and emotional support to the recipients through regular contact with Rotary members. Committee members meet their scholarship recipient monthly for at least 30 minutes to provide council and guidance as well as to deliver the scholarship check. Often this interaction develops into a deep mentorship that can last for many years after the student graduates from high school. In addition, it is an opportunity for these students to better understand the mission, vision and values of Rotary and to hopefully become Rotarians as adults.
