Rotary Foundation Giving
 
Will You Help Us Reach our Goal for Rotary Foundation Giving?
 
As you know, Topeka South Rotary has been superior in meeting our goals that the board sets for our club each year.
One of those goals is for our club members is to contribute to the Rotary Foundation to meet our annual goal (for this
Rotary year our annual giving goal to the Foundation is $13,000).
 
You all should have received an email from Faron Barr on November 27, asking you to consider giving to the Rotary
Foundation in honor of Giving Tuesday. Faron included a lot of great information about the Foundation and its projects.
Even though Giving Tuesday is past, we hope that you consider a gift to the Foundation. I don’t know about you, but I
am always inclined to learn more about the Rotary Foundation, so in the next few months, you will be learning about
the Foundation as well through speakers and testimonials from our members that have given.
 
So, my ask to you not only includes giving to the Rotary Foundation, but if you are already a donor, would you be willing
to provide a brief testimonial at club meeting about why you choose to give to the Foundation? If so, please contact me
at my work email (marlou.wegener@bcbsks.com) or you can also reach me on my cell phone - 785-230-4378. Please
consider this as it will definitely make an impact to our members!
 
We started off the 2024 program year on January 5 by hearing from Roger Aeschliman, who presented on major
gifts to the Rotary Foundation! And I hope to hear from you about wanting to give your
testimonial about why you give to the Rotary Foundation. Thank you for your consideration.
