The Rotary Club of Folsom was proud to award $17,000 in Teacher Grants during our March 26 meeting, supporting innovative classroom projects across the Folsom Cordova Unified School District.
This year, 41 teachers from 14 schools received grants to help bring new ideas, materials, and opportunities to their students.
A special highlight of the evening was honoring longtime educator and Rotarian Bob Mange, whose career in education spans more than 30 years as a teacher, coach, principal, and district administrator. In recognition of his decades of leadership, service to students, and dedication to supporting educators, the Rotary Club of Folsom is proud to name its teacher grant program the “Bob Mange Teacher Grant Program,” ensuring that his commitment to educational excellence will continue to benefit teachers and students for years to come. Bob was also recognized with proclamations from The Sacramento County Board of Supervisors and the City of Folsom for his lasting impact on education and our community.
For nearly three decades, our Teacher Grant Program has been one of the Rotary Club of Folsom’s signature efforts supporting education. This year, we were proud to partner with the Folsom Lake Rotary Club again to expand our impact.
Over that time, the Rotary Club of Folsom has supported local education, contributing over $500,000 to Folsom schools through teacher grants, scholarships, leadership programs, and more.
We are proud to continue investing in our teachers, students, and community.
