Girdwood Food Pantry Grant Funding
Girdwood Rotary is proud to support the Food Pantry's efforts to provide food and more to those in the Girdwood Valley who can use an extra hand. At the onset of the pandemic, our club donated $2500 to help ensure the pantry was stocked and ready. A portion of that was a contribution by
Rotary District 5010
.
We're pleased to announce that our application for additional District grant funding has been approved! They will donate an extra $1500 and our club is excited to double match that amount making a total donation of $7000!
The Food Pantry has done a wonderful job of providing food+ to anyone in need. It takes a lot of work and organization. Thank you to all who have been involved, with special thanks to Terry Sherwood who is tireless in her dedication to the community.
Good work Girdwood Valley!

Our Girdwood Fire Department recently began a fundraiser to replace 6 older, defective rescue dry suits that are used for water rescue here in the valley.
Many individuals have been generous with donations for the cause, and Girdwood Rotary was pleased to be able to join them in supporting the hard-working community leaders of the Girdwood Fire Department. Our club president CeCe Mendonsa was on hand to present.
2020 Girdwood Graduate Parade
On Friday May 15th Girdwood Forest Fairies put together a parade for Girdwood High School Seniors. The students walked with their families up Hightower Road to the Nissman Pavillion in the Forest Fair park where they were recognized with a small gift and individual graduation photos by local photographers Julia Martyn and Camille Jones. 

The residents of Girdwood lined the street along the parade route, keeping socially distant, but showing all the love and respect we have for this year's outstanding graduates. 
 
Girdwood Rotary was among the service groups present to help direct traffic and assist in any way needed to ensure this was a magical event. Thank you Girdwood, Rotary and the Forest Fairies who put on a wonderful event for our local seniors!
