Julie Bellezza, a representative of the OceanFirst Bank Foundation, visited the Tri-County Rotary Club to make a case for deeper community investment, encouraging members to get involved with local nonprofits and learn about the foundation's grant opportunities.

Bellezza urged Rotarians to engage with area nonprofits to help further their missions, while also outlining what OceanFirst Bank Foundation brings to the table: financial resources and funding grants available to nonprofits and schools. The remarks, reported March 17, touched on concrete mechanisms through which Rotary members could channel support beyond their own club activities.

The Tri-County Rotary serves a broad swath of Cumberland County, drawing members from Vineland, Millville, Buena, and Newfield. The club's geographic reach makes it a natural venue for conversations about coordinated regional philanthropy, and Bellezza's visit appeared aimed at connecting that membership with funding channels that many local organizations may not fully know how to access.

Specific grant amounts, eligibility criteria, and application timelines were not detailed in the meeting summary. Those interested in learning more about OceanFirst Bank Foundation's programs would need to contact the foundation directly for specifics on funding rounds and recent local recipients.
