Giving To The Rotary Foundation

 
Giving to The Rotary Foundation
The Rotary Foundation provides hope, health, and peace around the world.   So much good begins with these gifts: wells are constructed, children are vaccinated against illness, senior citizens are afforded meals and services, children and adults are educated and given professional opportunities. This work is vital to the children, families, and communities who benefit. Only when people’s basic needs are met, can they pursue the larger elements of human life including conflict resolution, community building, and peace.
 
Paul Harris Fellow
A Paul Harris Fellow is someone who contributes (or in whose name is contributed using Foundation recognition points), a gift of US$1,000 or more cumulatively to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus Fund, or an approved global grant.  
 
Becoming a Paul Harris Fellow is a tremendous accomplishment and honor as these contributions impact communities around the world. Paul Harris Fellows, in a very tangible way, provide stepping stones to a more harmonious world.
 
Paul Harris Society
The Paul Harris Society (PHS) is an official recognition program of The Rotary Foundation for individuals who personally contribute US $1,000 or more to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus Fund and/or an approved global grant every Rotary year, when financially able.  Contributions to the Endowment Fund and Disaster Recovery Funds are not eligible for PHS membership.
 
We say “when financially able” to allow some wiggle room if an individual is having financial issues one Rotary year that may prevent them from meeting their expressed intent as a PHS member. 
 
Consider joining the Paul Harris Society and give joyously to the Foundation and be personally fulfilled knowing that your gift is doing good in the world.
