The new Rotary year starts Tuesday. It is again time to plan your donation to the Rotary Foundation (TRF). The form below is a pledge card for you. Please consider how much you want to donate, and above all, how much you feel comfortable donating, and indicate it on the form. There will be copies of the form at the club meetings.
DG Ed Jellen will be visiting us August 5 which is earlier then normal in the Rotary year. When the DG comes to a club, it is traditional for for the governor to hand out pins at the various levels of giving. The 3 defined levels are $200 is a Double Sustainer; $500 is a Super Sustainer; and $1000 is a Paul Harris Society member. I will be donating at the Paul Harris Society level. We all have until June 30 to honor our pledge.
I will be donating some amount of money each month until I get to $1000. I will get to that level a month or so before the District onference. At the conference there is a special reception for Paul Harris Society members. If you can do it comfortably, please join me in the Paul Harris Society.
At the first meeting on JUly 8 and every now and then, I will give an overview of how to donate to TRF online. I will be sending screen shots of how to do that after July 8. Donating online saves several unnecessary steps which always piles more work on Al Panetta. However, if you still prefer to pay by check and have the club fill out the paerwork for you that will be an available option.
