In addition to the District 6540 matching gifts campaign, John Wendel is offering to match your donation.
 
Following on the success of 2015-16 Matching Gifts Campaign, the Rotary District is starting the Campaign this year on December 1, 2016.  The campaign will end on January 31, 2017, or when the 50,000 Foundation points are matched, whichever comes first.
 
This is a limited time offer for only District 6540 Rotarians.
 
Become a Paul Harris Fellow quicker with matching points for your donation!  Become a Paul Harris Fellow and/or earn a new Multiple Paul Harris Fellow pin. Make your spouse/partner a Paul Harris Fellow and your children, too. How about your parents, grandparents, grandchildren, favorite neighbor, or your boss?
 
District Governor Ranjan Kini, District Rotary Foundation Chair PDG Judy Walker and the committee are making this special offer possible.  They will match your individual donation from $100 on up to $25,000 to the Annual Fund of The Rotary Foundation, with their recognition points. This can help you finish your first Paul Harris Fellowship or attain your next multiple Paul Harris Fellowship level. You can make someone else a Paul Harris Fellow, or two or three.  Please note that any current Major Donors are not eligible to personally get points, but they can give the points to an eligible designated recipient.
 
This year we are also offering a 2:1 match for NEW enrollments in Rotary Direct – the method for donating via periodic credit card donation.  Please see more details in the attachment.
 
This offer begins today, December 1, 2016, and expires on January 31, 2017.  Make sure that your "personal" checks arrive well before January 31, 2017.  We can match only the first $50,000 in eligible donations that we receive.
 
How this works:    PLEASE REVIEW THE RULES CAREFULLY, that were included in the attachment of the email notification that you should have received from John Smith on December 1, 2016.
 
Please make your personal checks payable to "The Rotary Foundation" and mail them along with the Foundation Contribution form, which can be found on the Rotary.org website at www.rotary.org, under My Rotary, to District Secretary John Smith at:
Rotary District 6540,
5307 Cloverbrook Drive, Fort Wayne, IN  46806.
 
If you have any questions, please call John at (260) 410-9326, or email John at:  john.smith@rotary6540.org
