Club donors honor memory of Rotary founder

Rotary has various levels of recognition to say thank you to those who contribute to the Rotary International Foundation. That recognition carries the name of Paul Harris, Rotary’s founder.

Support of foundation activities is voluntary, though the club encourages every member to contribute at least $100 annually and be Sustaining Members of the foundation. Our goal this year is to average $225 per member over the course of the year. Some give more, some less.

The club can invoice members for their contributions. Make a pledge by contacting the club’s foundation director, George Steele, who will set things up for you. Non-member donations are welcomed as well.
