NOVEMBER IS FOUNDATION MONTH
By: DG Marion Cheney, Dover RC
I had the opportunity to attend the Learning to Lead Symposium in Toronto recently.
To fully understand the magnitude of what I am about to say, I will share some figures with you.
District 7780 is in Zone 32. Zone 32 is comprised of 22 Districts, 1,164 Rotary clubs, 32,783 Rotarians, 76 Rotaract clubs and 604 Rotaractors.
Every year districts with the highest total Annual Fund donations, highest total Rotary Foundation donations and per capita Annual Fund donations, are recognized at this event.
District 7780 came in first in all three categories. This was a first for 7780!
In addition, 18 of our 39 clubs were recognized for their participation in the End Polio Now campaign.
Over the next month while making my governor visits, I will be presenting awards to the top 3 per capita clubs, the 5 clubs with 100% Foundation Giving, and the 5 clubs with Every Rotarian Every Year participation.
In the meantime, thank you for your support of the Rotary Foundation and Creating Hope in the World with your generous donations.
