Rotary Citrus Sale To Benefit Children

Proceeds from the 2002 Montrose Rotary Citrus Sale will be used to fund a Rotary Foundation Matching Grant to purchase hearing aids at minimal cost for poor children in Calcutta, India. Monies raised by Montrose and Calcutta Rotary Clubs will be matched seven-fold by District and Rotary International funds. It is planned that up to 100 hearing impaired youths, who otherwise could not afford hearing aids, will obtain them through the matching grant.

Orders for premium Hale Indian River Grove citrus can be placed with any Montrose Rotarian through the month of November, for delivery the week of December 15. Holiday gift boxes are available, with red grapefruit, tangelos, and navel oranges as well. Contact Nancy Oakley, Montrose Rotary President, at 289-4545, or Tom Kurosky at 278-3063 for more info.
