As usual, our Rotary Club are always ready to volunteer to help our community. Twelve MWR Rotary club members had signed up to be "vaccine sitters"; however, Public Heath already had enough volunteers for the first round of vaccinations so none of our Rotary members were contacted. Richard Lemay will be contacting our volunteers to see if they would be interested in helping with the second round of vaccinations.
Below is your Rotary Foundation moment for this week. This is a simple and effective practice to keep our fellow Rotarians informed and educated about our Rotary Foundation.
What is The Rotary Foundation’s Funding Cycle?
The Rotary Foundation has a unique funding cycle that utilizes contributions for programs three years after they are received. The three-year cycle gives districts time for program planning and participant selections, and allows The Rotary Foundation to invest the contributions. The earnings from those investments help pay for administration, program operations and fund development costs.
Your contributions to the Annual Fund in Rotary year 2020-21 will be invested in Rotary year 2021-22, and projects will be selected in Rotary year 2022-23, with the funds actually spent in Rotary year 2023-24.
Please support The Rotary Foundation’s Annual Fund now and get involved in planning future projects.
