Foundation Update: Multiplying Our Impact with EREY and PolioPlus
Lynn Clark took the podium at our last meeting to rally Reno Sunrise behind Rotary Foundation giving.
Lynn highlighted our goal for 100% club participation in Every Rotarian, Every Year (EREY). A simple $25 minimum contribution from every member to the Annual Fund not only supports worldwide initiatives, but also returns an extra $900 in District 5190 grant funding right back to our club for local projects.
Lynn also called on members to support PolioPlus. Rotary has channeled over $2 billion into global eradication, and the world is closer than ever to ending the disease. However, with 42 wild polio cases in Afghanistan and 7 in Pakistan reported last year, our continued donations are essential to finish the job. Every contribution makes a tangible difference—both locally in District 5190 and across the globe.
If you are uncomfortable sending the funds through the Rotary International website, you can bring Lynn a check made out to Rotary International and instructions on where you would like the funds directed.
