Summary: Provide basic schools supplies for needy children in Cassia County Idaho.
Since 2019, the Burley Rotary Club has provided basic school supplies to local schools for needy children. Many local students lack basic necessities like backpacks, pencils, paper crayons, markers and headphones. Burley Rotary Club supplies Cassia County School District with an assortment of supplies to provide these students as needed throughout the year. This helps these students participate with their peers and maintain their dignity in the education environment.
The project is administered by Burley Rotary Club members. Club members contacted Cassia County School administration to assess common current needs of low-income students. Club members order supplies and deliver them to the local schools to be distributed by each school's staff as specific needs are identified. Between ordering and delivering the supplies to the six district elementary schools in the county, club members spend 30-40 hours on the project.

There was an error in the recent notification that the District's block grant has been approved by The Rotary Foundation. The date should have been July 15, 2025. When reporting your grant upon project completion, your receipts will need to show expenses incurred after that date. Thank you for participating in TRF grants!
