The Rotary Foundation . . . It’s Your Foundation!
All this month, you will learn more about The Rotary Foundation. You will hear how the Foundation helps Rotary members advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by improving health, providing quality education, improving the environment, and alleviating poverty.
But what does that mean for each individual member of Rotary? Where do you fit in?
The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives both close to home and around the world.
• For just $10 a month through Rotary Direct, you can protect 200 children a year from Polio
• Your $50 donation can provide clean water to help fight waterborne illness in a developing area
• An anti-bullying campaign can be launched with a $500 contribution, creating a safe environment for children
Since it was founded more than 100 years ago, the Foundation has spent more than $4 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects.
While The Rotary Foundation belongs to the members of Rotary, no member has been required to donate, no one will force you to give. The members of Rotary simple understand the value of their Foundation and willingly contribute what they can. With your continued or increased support, together we can make lives better in your community and around the world!
