November is Rotary Foundation Month!

As a Rotarian, we all know there are many good things that occur because of The Rotary Foundation. Because of our financial support, The Rotary Foundation helps fight hunger needs, works to reduce child mortality, promotes peace and conflict resolution, provides basic education and literacy support and helps eradicate polio!

By giving only $100 each year through the Every Rotarian, Every Year (EREY) initiative, you become a Rotary Foundation Sustaining Member. Contributions to EREY are the primary source of funding for Foundation programs.

It is because of these valuable causes, plus many others, we must continue our support of The Rotary Foundation. I encourage each of you to learn more about the Rotary Foundation and make a contribution to continue saving and changing lives. These programs work, and they are a great investment for a better and safer world.

President Jim
