Rotary President Brad Swartzentruber and Nampa Rotary Foundation Chairman Andy Dodson recently presented Nampa Interim Director Claire Connley a check for $10,000. A study room, equipped with electronic technology, has been named after Nampa Rotary. Canyon County Sunrise Rotary Club of Nampa gave $1,000 and the Nampa Rotary Foundation gave $1,000. Nampa Rotary gave $3,000 and Rotary District 5400 provided a matching grant of $5,000.

“The Rotary Clubs of Nampa are proud to support a local community project that is in alignment with one of Rotary’s six areas of focus – literacy,” Nampa’s Past President Jennifer Deroin said. “We understand the importance of early childhood literacy and wanted to provide technology that would aid in this effort.  We provide dictionaries to third graders typically every year, and thought that this would be a great opportunity to support this legacy project in Nampa.”
