Today's Rotary Foundation Minute is provided as a reminder to ALL of us that the Foundation is the primary way in which we are involved in the 4^th avenue of service - International Service.

When you and I make our donations to the Rotary Foundation, we do so knowing that 50% of that donation will come right back to our District to be used for approved educational and humanitarian programs chosen by us! And Now.20% of our "half" can be allocated to District Simplified Grants for approved projects right in our own communities! Even the other 50% comes back to us indirectly because it's used to match a variety of world community service projects. Our gifts to the Foundation help the world while simultaneously they are rooted deeply in our club and in our community. Every Rotarian Every Year is a reminder to all of us to donate generously to the Foundation on a consistent basis.
