May Foundation Greeting

 
 

As Rotarians we all receive a subscription to “The Rotarian” magazine. In the May 2017 edition there is a great article called “Your Gift: From Start to Finish, the Rotary foundation is the best steward for your money. Here is why.”  This is possibly the best article I’ve ever read in regards to explaining OUR Foundation. We received 100 out of 100 points from Charity Navigator in 2016. Nine years in a row we have earned a 4 star rating which only 1% of all charities earn.  As we issue a formal call for District grants this year, remember that those funds come from our collective donations to The Rotary foundation Annual Fund.  They are not possible without all of us! District 5970 has $55,001 to distribute this fall for District Grants.  Applications are Due by June 15th.  Refer to District 5970's Grant Manual that can be found at:  http://district5970.org/SitePage/district-foundation/grants (download the document to navigate from the table of contents)

  We can’t wait to see all the great things you do with those funds in the 2017-2018 Rotary year!
