DG Claudette has challenged us to increase our TRF giving and we are halfway toward meeting her challenge. The bottom line - All donations from $100 to $2,000 given to TRFs Annual Fund from May 6th through June 15th will be matched with DOUBLE Paul Harris Points. This is actually a great offer. I remember when PDG Hal Kibby matched my contribution one year - it was exciting to double my donation.
A word about TRF and our club. The Rotary International programs that The Rotary Foundation supports are good ones. They are all about creating well being and peace in the world. It is only through our donations that this all works.
Two things:
First
- It would be really amazing if the oldest club in the Rogue Valley (ours) could become an EREY club. That means "Every Rotarian, Every Year". A donation of any size is valid toward this goal. Talk to Cliff about it.
Second
- it's easy to contribute a small amount each month - that eventually grows to a larger amount. I donate $10 each month through the RI website (it's automatic once you sign up) and at the end of the year I am proud to say I have contributed $120. I couldn't afford that much in one lump so this makes it easy. You can talk to Cliff and he'll tell you how to do it - or go to the Rotary website and sign up. It's really easy.
Enjoy!
