Guest Speaker This Week : PDG Tony Heading on the Rotary Foundation. Colleen and Teresa BTD Nick and Jac BTD The Rotary Foundation is 100 year old now and has contributed $3billion to life changing and sustainable projects around the world in this time. 91% is spent on programs and projects 4 star rating- No. 3 Charity rating by CNBS in world rankings of charities. The Rotary Foundation is split into Polio Plus Fund, Annual Program Fund and the Permanent Fund ( Endowment Fund) Polio Plus Fund is increased by contributions from Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Annual Program Fund invested for three years then the interest income is used for District and Global Grants. The Permanent Fund ( Endowment Fund) is an investment only fund. Our Club goals- we contributed $7558 in 2016-2017 Annual fund- we have already contributed our $2500 for this year. Everyone should consider supporting the Rotary Foundation not just through our Club but personally as well, as only 24% of all Rotarians currently contribute to RF personally now. Tony gave out a very nice piece of RF cake and also a Centurion $2 money collector to encourage all members to contribute at least $100 for the year to RF. Lovely Ladies BTD Other News: Important!
