Dexter, Missouri - The Dexter Rotary Club received a Community Assistance Project Grant for 2019.  this CAP Grant is designed to be used to support small projects that address a specific community need.

"This year we chose to assist the Regional Healthcare Foundation’s Mother-to-Mother Program," stated Hank Trout, Dexter Rotary Club member. "Their mission is to create self-confident young parents with hope for the future through education, support and services in partnership with the community.   This project will assist approximately 14 young women, under the age of 24, and their families, to help ensure that children and families are free to grow and reach their full potential in a nurturing, healthy and safe environment."  

The Dexter Rotary Club received $1,000.00 through the CAP grant and matched the grant with $1,000.00 of their local club funds. 

The Dexter Rotary Club purchased ten convertible cribs, five toddler cribs and toddler bed mattresses and five safety convertible car seats to donate.

Dexter Rotary Club is a service organization whose purpose is to bring together business and professional leaders in order to provide humanitarian service and to advance goodwill and peace around the world.  The club meets weekly at Hickory Log Restaurant at noon each Tuesday.
