How Will the Funds Collected Be Used?<br />

Funds will be directed using the following priorities <strong>and</strong> will be dependent on the availability of the <strong>funds</strong> over time.<br />

A) Immediate Needs<br />

• Funeral <strong>and</strong> <strong>related</strong> expenses<br />

• Counseling <strong>and</strong> medical needs<br />

• Emergency family living expenses<br />

B) Continuing & Longer Term Needs<br />

*Counseling <strong>and</strong> medical needs of the persons noted in i-iv above<br />

• Supplemental needs of persons noted in i-iv above<br />

• Supplemental needs of New<strong><strong>to</strong>wn</strong> Schools<br />

C) For the Broader Community<br />

• Residual <strong>funds</strong>, if any, may be used <strong>to</strong> name scholarships in memory of the victims<br />

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 />
