Dupont Circle Rotary Charitable Foundation

For more information about our Rotary Club, please visit the following page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/146157 Sponsored by Rotary International, Dupont Rotary is a service-oriented club comprised of 35+ committed individuals from the greater Washington, D.C. area, whose professional and service aspirations extend far beyond the confines of the Beltway. Since its chartering, the club has inv

olved itself in numerous service projects at home and abroad--from partnering with local organizations in Washington to participating in peace and conflict resolution initiatives with partnering Rotary Clubs in Uganda and fundraising for a footbridge to increase schoolchildren's access to education in Zimbabwe, Dupont Rotary's area of influence is anything but small. FOOTBRIDGE PROJECT PROGRESS

Construction on the footbridge began in July 2015 using available funds. Work stopped briefly due to the rainy season in November, as expected, but picked up again shortly thereafter. The columns, which will ultimately support the footbridge, are now well above the water line in construction. Builders expect to complete the project by the end of June 2017. In the meantime, Dupont Rotarians continue to raise funds to see the project through to completion.
