Rotarian Generosity…
THANK YOU, District 6250 Rotarians! During the 2021-22 Rotary Year, your contributions to the Rotary Foundation totaled $673,115. The total includes $412,156 for the Annual Fund/SHARE program, $116,578 for Polio Plus, and the balance going to Areas of Focus, Global Grants, and Endowment as designated by the contributing Rotarian.
There are many reasons to celebrate this result. Your generosity increased contributions to the Annual Fund/Share by $52,912 and $7,317 to eradicate Polio compared to last year’s totals. Keep reading for more results and results and information on matching grants and grant applications.
In recognition, Clubs honored 71 first time Paul Harris Fellows, 240 Rotarians who received additional Paul Harris Fellows, 3 new Bequest Society Members, 13 new Major Donors, and 2 new Arch Klumph Society members.
Results in Matching Grants for Service Projects
What is most important about your generosity is its impact to make our world more peaceful through humanitarian service. In 2021-22, your donations from previous years provided $75, 279.16 to match Club funds for twenty-one (21) District Grant projects and $124,617 to match Club contributions for 5 Global Grant projects.
As of June 30, the District Grant Committee has approved District Grants totaling $39,782.50 for 12 projects. District Grant funds will be released as soon as all reports are finalized for last year’s District Grants. Clubs will be notified when they can begin spending funds for those projects.
