Due to COVID, world-wide donations to the Rotary Foundation are unfortunately very much down. As a result, the district grants were $3200 this year but will only be $2000 next year and the Global grants will also be reduced. Scholarships have also had to be reduced by $50. Our club has exceeded the Annual Fund donations and almost matched the Polio Plus donations of last year. However, we have only about 60% of our members donating to either, this year. I would like to encourage each member to donate at least $25 US which is about $32 C to the foundation. As mentioned previously, the club will match new donations up to 50% for those who have never donated, up to 500 recognition points and up to 200 recognition points for those who have not contributed for over two years. If you wish, you can send donations to me made out to “The Rotary Foundation Canada” and I will fill out the required paperwork and submit it for you.
