The Rotary Foundation transforms the gifts of Rotarians and others into service projects that change lives -- close to home and around the world. Since it was founded more than 100 years ago, The Rotary Foundation has spent more than $4 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects. The Rotary Foundation has received 12 consecutive 4-star ratings (the highest rating) from Charity Navigator. What impact can one donation have? For as little as 60 cents, a child can be protected from polio. $50 can provide clean water to help fight waterborne illness. $500 can launch an antibullying campaign and create a safe environment for children. Chris will speak to the club about the important work of The Rotary Foundation and encourage members to make The Rotary Foundation part of their charitiable iving each year. |
