Past Present and our Club's current Rotary International Foundation Chair discusses the importance of giving to the Rotary Foundation. One of the Foundation's greatest benefits is that 50% of the money donated by a Rotary District returns to that district to be used by the Rotary Clubs. Our District 7850 receives approximately $30,000 each year. A couple of year's ago, the St. Johnsbury Club participated in a District Grant. The grant helped to get the Rankin land (Kingdom Trails South) started.
