The Rotary Club of Oakville Trafalgar (RCOT) was honoured by the Trustees of The Rotary Foundation for our ongoing support of the Foundation.
The Rotary Foundation is a non-profit corporation that supports the efforts of Rotary International to achieve world understanding and peace through international humanitarian, educational, and cultural exchange programs. It is supported solely by voluntary contributions.
The Foundation Trustees presented our Club with a banner as an expression of their sincere appreciation for our members' generous support of the Annual Fund. Our Club is distinguished from more than 36,000 Rotary clubs worldwide as being the following:
- One of only 1,530 clubs to achieve Top Three Highest in Per Capita Annual Giving honors in their district,
- One of only 3,800 clubs worldwide to attain status as an Every Rotarian, Every Year Club (clubs must achieve a minimum Annual Fund contribution of US$100 per capita with every dues-paying member),
- One of only 4,500 clubs worldwide to become a 100% Foundation Giving Club (clubs must have achieved an average of US$100 in per capita giving and 100 percent participation of every dues-paying member).
All members of the RCOT are proud of their contribution and will continue to fully support the programs undertaken by The Rotary Foundation.
