 I would like to extend a special thank you to all the clubs that donated to the wheelchair project. As an extension of this gratitude, we will be conducting a drawing at the District Conference in Lake Arrowhead. The winner will receive a Foundation Wheelchair. Only the clubs that donated will be included in the drawing. A member from the winning club must be present, and prepared to take the wheelchair home for use at whatever project the club chooses. |

Rotary Foundation Contributions
Contributions to the Rotary Foundation's Annual Program Fund and to Polio Plus Challenge are not where we hoped they would be yet. We are currently at 66.55% of goal.
Each Club President set a goal for giving, but it's often up to the Club Foundation Chair to promote giving and to encourage it. Many clubs 'collect' donations to The Rotary Foundation, but fail to send them in until the end of the year. Don't do that. Send in contributions as they occur all year long. If your club hasn't yet sent in your contributions, do so now. See your club's CRS - Club Recognition Summary - report online to see who has given and what amount this year, and then make the ask. Rotarians, even in hard times, give when asked and told the need, and the needs are great. Let's end this Rotary year meeting or exceeding our goals.
