Annual Giving

         Contributions to Annual Giving are invested for 3 years and then 50% of the contributions are returned to our district as our SHARE money and the other 50% of the contributions are returned as our World Fund money.     

       Sure these are tough times but Rotarians will give if they recognize Rotary’s value to them by asking the following questions of Rotarians individually or, preferably, in an interactive group setting. Their responses will help them realize Rotary’s full value, leading them to want to make a gift.

• What is important about Rotary to you personally?
• What impact has Rotary had on your life?
• What is your proudest accomplishment in Rotary and why?
• What is your most meaningful experience in Rotary and why?
• What is your role in furthering world understanding, goodwill, and peace?
• How does The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International strengthen Rotary and you?
• Why is making a difference to people in the world important to you?

 The power of taking Rotarians to the value they receive from Rotary will only strengthen their commitment, ownership, and gratitude” in giving to the Foundation, every year.
