Every Rotarian, Every Year

The Rotary International Year ends on June 30. That gives us just three months to boost our giving to the Annual Program Fund Our achievement affects the District Designated Funds that come back to us three years hence. At stake are funding levels for Ambassadorial Scholars, GSE, and a number of peace and humanitarian grants and projects. You can establish a Sustaining Membership with as little as $100, or continue to build towards Paul Harris Recognition. Checks should be made out to The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International, memo: Annual Program Fund. Please send your check to Jane Smith as soon as possible or not later than 15 June 2008.
