Big day at Rotary DMAM this morning! Our DMAM Foundation gave $15,000 to Harvest Academy Iowa, as one of our three recipients from our annual signature fundraiser, BingoBASH! The monies will go toward its new campus facility. Accepting the check for Harvest are founder (2nd from right) and (2nd from left), along with Foundation Board member and Club Pres-Elect .

Harvest Academy is a non-profit organization that allows men who have dealt with incarceration, homelessness, and/or substance abuse to change their life, free of charge.

Rotary DMAM is so proud to support this life-changing organization! Thank you Harvest Academy for the difference you make in so many lives!
