Ever wonder where the Five.12 Foundation got it's name and start?

Here is the experience that started it all!Have you ever thought about what 5 dollars and 12 cents can do for someone?

Years ago, founder Nick Greer had an experience raising money for a dear friend who was diagnosed with leukemia. He was 26 years old with a young family.

But he didn’t have insurance to pay for treatment.

In just two short days they raised over $64,000. It was unreal. People were so generous in their thoughts, words, and actions.

But on the second day, Nick’s daughter, who was six years old at the time, came up to him. She had something in her hand.

She handed it to him and said, “Dad, it’s everything I have. Will this be enough money to save Eric’s life?”

It was 5 dollars and 12 cents.

Here was a six-year-old girl with such great faith to give back, to love, to help people that she barely even knew.

$64,000 was a lot of money. But that 5 dollars and 12 cents? That was everything she had and she was willing to use it to help someone in need.

For that reason we created the Five.12 Foundation. Because even 5 dollars and 12 cents can make an impact and save people’s lives. ... See MoreSee Less

Doing good in the world is what we are all about!

Since 2005, the Rotary Club of Mount Timpanogos has delivered dictionaries to 3rd Grade Students in Northern Utah County. It is that time of year again and with the help of local Girl Scouts, we placed stickers in Dictionaries and have them ready for delivery and a presentation to schools in and around American Fork, Utah!

We also put stickers in books that will be delivered to 1st Grade Students in and around American Fork that will be from "The Book Fairy". One book a month for eight months out of the school year to help build each student's personal library!

This is funded with grants from the American Fork PARC Tax and the help of many hands including the Friends of the American Fork Library and the Rotary Club!

Along with "Combating Hunger" through the Utah Tour de Donut, We want to improve literacy in the young members of our community!

Thank you for your support! ... See MoreSee Less
