Dear Rotary District 5470 Club Presidents and Foundation Chairs,
November is Rotary Foundation Month and, if you have read the November District 5470 newsletter, you have already seen the information that I copied from it and pasted below. During this month, please make an extra effort to encourage each of your members to contribute something to The Rotary Foundation by year end. Supporting The Rotary Foundation Annual Fund is critical to serving our communities and our world, particularly during these difficult times.
Thank you for your support,
Lloyd Nordhausen
District Annual and Endowment Fund Chair
We have SET TWO GOALS!
1. Every Rotarian contributes something between now and the 31st of December to the Rotary Annual Fund
2. We Raise $300,000 in donations to help fund our club service to the world!!
It is our honor and privilege to announce the kick off of our ANNUAL DISTRICT 5470 FUND THE FOUNDATION CAMPAIGN! November is Rotary Foundation month and between now and the end of the year we will connect with each of the members in our district to help raise funds for The Rotary Foundation's Annual Fund!
This campaign is part of our Every Rotarian Every Year(EREY) fund drive and CRITICAL to the SERVICE we provide in OUR COMMUNITIES and around the world! The District has set a goal to raise $300,000 in contributions so that 36 months from now, our District will have $150,000 to fund District & Global grants to our clubs! There is no way to express how IMPORTANT YOUR CONTRIBUTION is to our District's ability to provide funds to your service projects at the club level!
Lets break this goal down. We are asking each member of our District to contribute something. There is no amount too small that helps our efforts to fund global and district grants. Remember, half of every dollar you contribute comes back the district to fund our district & global grants. We are recognized and rewarded if we can get Every Rotarian (Every Year) to contribute SOMETHING!
No matter what you contribute it HELPS and WE THANK YOU!
Now, here is what would be ideal! We would love for each member to consider donating a total of at least $150 over the next TWO MONTHS (TEN WEEKS)! That's right...we would be INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL if each member would consider finding $150 dollars over the last TEN WEEKS REMAINING in the YEAR ($15 / Week) to Donate to the Rotary Foundations' Annual Fund. You can break that down into 10 $15 contributions; you can do TWO $75 contributions or you can donate one time $150! If all roughly 2000 members of our District contributes $150 or more, WE WILL REACH OUR GOAL!
We know this year has been tough on so many Rotary families. We know times have been crazy! We know and understand if you can't help at this time! We TOTALLY UNDERSTAND! BUT, IF YOU CAN, WE WOULD BE SO GRATEFUL FOR ANY HELP with the goal of $150 over the next TWO MONTHS from EVERY ROTARIAN in the District! This is $15 a week for the next 10 weeks!
CAN YOU HELP US REACH OUR GOAL?
CAN YOU HELP US RAISE $300,000 for the ROTARY FOUNDATION ANNUL FUND to support our service?
If we raise $300,000 for the Rotary Foundations' Annul Fund, our District will receive $150,000 to fund
Club members, if you know someone who might love this position, please pass it on!

As you're doing your shopping online, did you know that you can support our Rotary Club with every Amazon purchase? Here’s how:
Go to smile.amazon.com (not amazon.com). Amazon Smile is the same company, same account, same password, but the Amazon Smile program gives one half of one percent of every purchase to charity. No, it’s not a lot, but it’s also not nuthin’ (to be exact: about $150 for the Club so far). So again, go to smile.amazon.com
Sign into your Amazon account as you normally would
On the very top left of the page, next to the AmazonSmile logo, are three horizontal bars. Click there for the drop-down menu.
Scroll ALL the way down to “Your AmazonSmile”; it should be the last option right before “Sign Out”; Click on “Your AmazonSmile”
On the right side of the page, click on the “change charity” box under Your current charity (Note: If you are currently supporting another charity, that’s awesome! These instructions are for those who are not doing so. Also, if you have not previously selected a charity, your default option will be St. Judge Children’s Research Hospital.)
Type in Community Service Fund of the Rotary Club of Colorado Springs; click Select
That’s it. You’re all set. Just remember to go to Smile.Amazon.com when you shop from now on.
