Program:  The Magic of the Rotary Foundation 

Dave Willman, Foundation Chair, District 5450 provided an overview on how the Foundation serves as a tool to fuel our club service projects.  When you give to the Annual Fund – SHARE, The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives close to home and around the world.

Dave reported that for 2022-2023 our Rotary District raised $631,078 ($404,770 GOAL) in Annual Funds last year. (Our commitment to the Ukraine Relief did significantly increase our giving).  We also exceeded our Polio goal last year to $204,345.    
Our district has had 28 Global Grants over the past three years and funded 42 District Designated Fund Grants. (DDF)
This year’s 2022-2023 DDF available is $117,000.00 and $78,000 is still available as of today.
 
 

The Rotary Foundation raised more than $434 million in 2021-22 to support programs that spur positive, lasting change.

In the past year, the Foundation : 

*Awarded 1,199 global grants ($73 million in program awards) to support large-scale projects, scholarships, and vocational training teams

*Allocated 478 district grants ($27 million in program awards) to support short-term service projects that address community needs and fund scholarships, youth programs, and vocational training teams

*Funded 207 disaster response grants ($8 million in program awards) for immediate response, short-term assistance, and long-term rebuilding following disasters

Welcome to Longmont Rotary!
Since 1919, Longmont Rotary has served this community through service projects such as winter coat drives, bell-ringing for the Salvation Army, etc.

“Rotary is a global network of 1.4 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.”
Our club, community, nation, and world need each one of us more than ever. I invite you to be a guest of our club by attending one of our meetings, enjoying our fellowship, and finding out how we can make our community, nation, and the world a better place.

Together, we will make a difference!
