In the wake of the Eaton Fire and in support of Altadena’s disaster relief and recovery efforts, the Rotary Club of Altadena has established a fund to provide support for immediate and long-term relief efforts through disaster response grants. We will also work on requests with our historically recognized community partners.
What Rotary disaster response grants support Community projects that benefit Altadena residents, businesses, services, and charities affected by the Eaton Fire. Applications will be considered and prioritized on the basis of need and impact.
