November: Rotary Foundation Month

November is a time for clubs and districts worldwide to highlight the impactful work of the Rotary Foundation. This month, clubs focus on educating members about the Foundation’s programs and encouraging contributions.

The Rotary Foundation, Rotary International’s charitable arm, supports global humanitarian and educational causes through two main funds:

  • Annual Programs Fund: Supports grants for global projects.
  • Permanent Fund: An endowment for sustaining long-term programs.

The Foundation addresses critical issues such as polio eradication, peace promotion, poverty reduction, literacy, and malnutrition. Join Rotarians in making a lasting impact by supporting the Foundation this month.
