Overview

Mission

To provide local and international service projects of a humanitarian nature.

What it reported doing in 2025

The primary activity of the FM Rotary Foundation in 2025 was final improvements (landscaping and lighting) of the Natural Playhill Park constructed in the city of Moorhead, MN. Construction was completed in 2025. We also are collecting pledge payments funding the project and paying off the construction loan. This will benefit children in the Fargo Moorhead community by encouraging healthy activities and play outdoors.

Operating model
