Why Give to the Rotary Foundation? Members Reply

Dan Hinkle:

I have just finished reading Ramesh Ferris’ book.  When he returned to India to meet his biological mother, he found her and his grandmother living in the same home where he was born.  His mother was working full-time for $1.00 a day, and his grandmother was selling homemade bread for survival.  Do we need further inspiration?

I have been blessed in so many ways.  It takes only a minute to observe those who have not been as fortunate.  The Rotary Foundation provides a simple vehicle, via donations, to help others locally or on a global level.

Collectively, as Rotarians, our small donations, added to others, result in large rewards to needy people or projects.  It has been a privilege to be able to help.
