Foundation Giving Sets New Record
Posted by Rich Kaye
Congratulations to all of you on having a great year for our Foundation! Our June contributions have just posted in Evanston, and the club has set a new all time record for per capita giving .... $578.78!
This eclipses the record set in 2007-2008 during Ann Farris' year ($578.44) and is only the second time we have ended with a per capita over $500.
More importantly, every single member of our club contributed something during the course of the year allowing our club to qualify as an Every Rotarian, Every Year (EREY) Club for Rotary year 2010-2011. And, our final contributions to polio have also posted and, once again, we have met the Foundation's challenge to raise in excess of $2,000 to help End Polio Now.
While the year still has 7 days to run, it appears that the three Killeen clubs may actually finish 1-2-3 in the district for per capita giving: RCKH-$578.78; RCK-$336.05; and RCKE-$309.09
Finally, thanks to all of you who helped make this record year possible. It's through generous contributions like yours that we can make an enormously positive impact on the quality of life for many around the world who are in need or faced with unexpected misfortune.
