It's Not Too Late to Donate to the Rotary Foundation
President Bill asked that this letter be included in this week’s COG
Dear Club Presidents:
This is a reminder that the year is quickly coming to an end. Now is the time to encourage your club members to make a contribution to The Rotary Foundation. This giving can target the Annual Programs Fund or the Polio Challenge, both of which generate Paul Harris Fellow credit. Donors may also wish to support the Permanent Fund or the Rotary Peace Centers Endowment Fund with cash contributions. These last two donations would not generate Paul Harris Fellow credits.
All of the above contributions are tax deductible as The Rotary Foundation is a fully approved charity. Giving can be done online through Member Access with a credit card or deductions from checking or savings accounts. Obviously, The Foundation will accept checks as well; however, the checks must be postmarked by December 31 and received by January 6, 2012. Checks should be mailed to:
The Rotary Foundation
14280 Collections Center Drive
Chicago, IL 60693
Thank you for you assistance in reminding club members of the importance of supporting our Rotary Foundation.
Bill Pettus
Regional Rotary Foundation Coordinator
