Summary: DNA Climber for Adaptive Playground for Harrison Elementary


High costs of adaptive playground equipment and lack of resources currently keeps individuals with varied disabilities from experiencing play with their peers. The Idaho Playground Project aims to give every child equal access to play experiences through playgrounds, toys, books and games. Playgrounds are an important part of a child's development. The next playground to get the update is Harrison Elementary in Twin Falls, ID. We will purchase the DNA Climber to assist with their overall project. We plan to assist with their fundraising efforts and help advertise the project and Rotary. Once they have all funds raised and pieces ready for delivery our club will assist in the removal of the old equipment and addition of the new handicap accessible equipment.

The district has already received more requests for grants than the money we'll have to distribute. Tier 3 restrictions require a club to make up the difference if you don't receive 100% of the DDF you're requesting. Will you be able to do this? You won't be able to scale back the project once it is approved. Fundraising is not considered to meet the requirement of active Rotarian involvement. Can you elaborate what your non-fundraising activities will be. Thank you!

I've cancelled the signature process so you can respond to the comments in the previous email. Once you've done that, you'll need to resend for signatures.

READ THIS MESSAGE AS IT INCLUDES INSTRUCTIONS! The district block grant was approved by TRF on July 11, 2024. . We’ll send your money as soon as the block grant is funded by TRF. You can safely incur costs now. Due to insufficient available funding for tier 3 project requests, the grants committee was only able to assign $4,000 of available DDF for yours. I have cancelled your signatures. Please change your financing to show $4,000 of DDF with the balance to be added to the cash contribution, then start the signature process again. Your club is expected to make up the difference as this is a tier 3 project. Call me at (208) 308-5617 if you have questions or need help.
