The New<strong><strong>to</strong>wn</strong> Rotary Foundation generally does not expect <strong>to</strong> disburse <strong>funds</strong> directly <strong>to</strong> those in need, but <strong>to</strong> direct <strong>funds</strong> as needed, <strong>to</strong><br />
vendors <strong>and</strong> through local agencies Rotarians have worked with that are well qualified. We will also further refine this strategy as we better<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the needs of those affected <strong>and</strong> other available resources. The Board of Direc<strong>to</strong>rs of the Foundation will have oversight on<br />
ensuring that all <strong>funds</strong> are spent per the structure defined here.<br />
