The Rotary Club of La Grange is hosting a t-shirt fundraiser for the Rotary Club of Kyiv in Ukraine. T-shirts can be purchased at the Historic Casino Hall in La Grange and proceeds will directly benefit the Rotary Club of Kyiv to address their city’s immediate needs. The Rotary Club of La Grange has already raised over $5,000 to support Rotary District 2232 – Ukraine and their fund for immediate medical needs for their communities that they serve. “The Rotary Club of La Grange believes strongly in giving directly to other Rotary clubs since during Hurricane Harvey so many clubs supported our relief efforts. Our club is hoping to raise an additional $5,000 to send to Ukraine through our t-shirt fundraiser,” said Regina Keilers, President of the Rotary Club of La Grange.
