In 1997 the Club organized the Apple Valley Rotary Scholarship Foundation. The initial funding for the Foundation came from the District 196 Foundation which after interviewing several service clubs in Apple Valley chose our Club to receive their beginning endowment. Since 2009 The Apple Valley Rotary Scholarship Foundation has donated over $400,000 through our fundraising efforts.
