Rotary  Foundation Giving
  Donald Meyer, District Foundation committee person and chair of the District Grants committee gave our club a great presentation. During the introduction, Carey recognized our 17 current Paul Harris Fellows as well as one spouse from our club. The Paul Harris Fellow recognition acknowledges individuals who contribute, or who have contributions made in their name, of $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International. The Foundation supports worldwide as well as local causes from "End Polio Now" to Clean water, education, scholarships and much more.  Don also explained the matching points system which helps fellow Rotarians reach the Paul Harris Fellowship thorugh a point system.  To find out more, our Foundation Chair, Carey Wilkens can assist you!
