ALL

clubs identify a Foundation Team Leader

1. Contribute to TRF as President: as President, you are the leader of your club. Giving to the Foundation allows you to walk the walk and not just talk the talk as you encourage others to give!
2. Identify and empower a club member to be Foundation Team Leader/Champion: they can be cheerleader and coordinator, so you don’t have to everything. Plus, there is strength in numbers!
3. Participate in a District or Global Grant: what a great way to show how your contributions are used! You can start your own grant (Requires Grants Management Seminar attendance) or CONNECT with another club’s project through funding
4. Feature grant in #7 as club program: gives an opportunity to educate and inspire club members to participate in action and giving – in other words share the impact our Foundation dollars are making in the world and our local communities.
5. Set club giving goals in Rotary Club Central for Annual Fund and PolioPlus
6. Hold a polio awareness event or program to educate/inspire members (World Polio Day is October 24, 2025)
7. Have District’s Fund Development Team give a program about how the Magic of the Rotary Foundation can help your club create Peace and hope in the WORLD. (Program touches on the impact our giving has and offers ways to develop a plan to increase giving.)
8. Educate members on different ways to give & recognition levels available
9. Recognize club members that achieve Paul Harris Fellow status
10. ASK CLUB MEMBERS TO GIVE!! Don’t just hint, ask directly (or find someone in your club that can). The biggest reason people will give is because they are asked!
