Empowering Students to Take Charge

Fuel Up to Play 60 is a program founded by the National Dairy Council and NFL, in collaboration with USDA, that empowers students to take charge in making small, everyday changes at school. Students can win cool prizes, like an NFL player visit or Super Bowl tickets, for choosing good-for-you foods and getting active for at least 60 minutes every day. We want kids to make a difference not only in their lives, but also their community.

While Rotary International has common goals and objectives, every club is unique in how they fulfill those goals. Our club has been making positive changes for 20 years in the Denver Lower Downtown (LoDo) district as well as globally. We are a hands on club – serving breakfast to Denver’s homeless youth; building a kitchen at an orphanage in Mexico; cleaning up the Cherry Creek bike path.

The Gates Family Foundation makes philanthropic investments statewide that contribute to the quality of life in Colorado, create opportunities for youth, and support stewardship of this extraordinary place, particularly the state’s natural inheritance. At the end of 2014, the Foundation invested more than 1 million across Colorado towards these ends. In carrying out its mission, the Foundation strives to maintain a long‐term perspective and focus on the challenges and opportunities that will have the greatest impact over time on the people, communities and resources of the state.
