OUR PROJECTS
Community Service has and will always be a
prominent passion of the Fenton Rotary Club.
Fundraiser dollars are used to support local organizations and area residents in need. Club members donate their time and resources to help better our community and help change the lives of local residents.
Below is a list of programs and organizations that we support.
Angel Tree
Every Christmas, the Rotary Club works with local schools and support organizations to help provide Christmas to area youth in need. Rotary members take part in the identification, organization, purchasing, wrapping, and the delivering of gifts to local families in time for Christmas morning.
Bush Park
In 1998 the Fenton Rotary Club adopted Bush Park, and to this day it continues to provide improvements and host events for local youth. Kayak boat launches, concrete bridge railing improvements, Tot-Lot maintenance and upkeep, split-rail fence replacement, and the installation of a new steel bridge to the Bush Park Island highlight a few of our more recent improvement projects.
Fourth of July River Cleanup
Each summer the Fenton Rotary Club makes a donation to the Fenton Freedom Festival event. Rotarians also have a long standing tradition of holding our annual Rubber Ducky Regatta event on July 4th. Preparation for this event includes a yearly river cleanup that removes debris and fallen trees from the downtown river bed and banks.
Ramp Building Projects
The Fenton Rotary Club identifies local residents who are confined to their homes and are in need of an accessible route. Club members field verify the conditions, design a ramp plan that satisfies the residents’ needs and meets code, work with local lumber yards to secure materials, and hit the job site with tools to construct a fully accessible ramp for those in need.
Little League
Each year the club supports the Fenton, Lake Fenton, and Linden Little League organizations. Funds go toward facility improvements and registration fees for those participants in need of assistance.
Project Graduation
The club supports our local graduation senior classes as donations are made to the associated Fenton, Lake Fenton, and Linden Project Graduation events.
Senior Picnic
Each summer Fenton Rotarian’s host a picnic for local senior communities at the Lake Fenton Sailing Club. This event provides lunch, singing entertainment, and pontoon rides on beautiful Lake Fenton.
Seasonal Floats
Community Service participates in Jinglefest and Fourth of July events by constructing and entering a float into the holiday parades.
Help Us Change Lives!
Every project comes with its own needs and challenges. We are always
looking for more volunteers to help us reach our greatest potential.
