THE ROTARY CLUB OF ELY WILL MATCH COMMUNITY DONATIONS TO THE ELY AREA FOOD SHELF UP TO $2,000
FROM FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 25, 2026.
The Ely Rotary Club collects cash donated in 31 “Penny Jars” in businesses throughout the Ely area and
donates the proceeds to the Ely Area Food Shelf in March every year. This year the total is $7,000.
The donation is made in March because the Food Shelf receives a funding match, every March.
In addition to the Penny Jar donation, this year the Ely Rotary Club will also match community contributions
donated to the Ely Area Food Shelf between February 20th to March 25th up to $2,000.
Community donations can be made by sending a check made payable to the Ely Area Food Shelf, 15 West
Conan Street, Ely, MN 55731 and listing “Rotary Match” on the memo line.
