KNK Club Giving to be Commended

Last Rotary year, our club members donated over $6,000 to The Rotary Foundation (well above the $100 per member minimum required) and every one of our Members contributed at least something.  That generosity earned our club an award banner commending us as a "100% Foundation Giving Club".

We are in very good company. Of the 35,399 Rotary Clubs worldwide, only 4,609 qualified for the award. That places our little Club among the top 13 % worldwide!  Our members realize that the Foundation's assets, the source of all those matching grants that help Rotary "do good in the world", come from the generosity of individual Rotarians.

In the first quarter of this current Rotary year, we have already achieved a $53.77 average.  It would be especially gratifying if we could earn the same award again, but that will be tougher this time, as this year every member must contribute at least $25.  On an ongoing basis, that would require only a $6.50 contribution with each quarterly bill from our Treasurer.  If you want additional information about giving, please talk with De’ Mackinnon or Bill Maule."
