Rotary Club to Donate $25,000 to Community Groups

The funds to be distributed are proceeds from the organization's annual beer festival.

The Moorpark Morning Rotary Club's Beer Tasting Festival has only been around for three years, but already it's become quite popular and last year raised about $50,000, half of which the club will donate Thursday morning.

During it's regular morning meeting, the club will give a total of $25,000 to 20 local school and nonprofit organizations.

The other $25,000 will go into an edownment to support future ongoing giving efforts.
