Rotary Foundation Challenge
A Presentation by Jim Hudson
Rotary is an International organisation in over 200 countries and we need to recognise this.
Founded in 1917, it's mission is to enhance understanding, world health and peace which includes making a significant impact on reducing polio and other water borne illnesses.
Funding for these activity comes through us as Rotarians. Our biggest benefactor is the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation which will triple our funding towards the eradication of polio campaign if we raise 50 million dollars.
We also have the opportunity to contribute by becoming Centurions for a tax deductible $100 per annum.
I would like to challenge our current Rotary membership to double our number of Centurions over the coming months.
