Club goal setting is vital to the Every Rotarian Every Year effort. As the President Elect Training Seminars (PETS) have just finished, please be sure that your club sets its annual giving goals and sends it to your district governor-elect each year.

It would be a great achievement if clubs could get every member to contribute $100.00 per head to enable us to help the less fortunate people of the world. They need our help; they need our assistance let's support them and make this place a better place to live.

A $100 contribution, for example, can help provide school supplies for 15 students in Costa Rica; Tuition and books for one year of school for two children in Sri Lanka. A $500 contribution can provide eyeglasses for 200 people in Nigeria; Ten-month food supply for a child in Nigeria and $1,000, micro enterprise loans for 22 women in the Philippines. Clean water for over 300 people in Haiti

Every Rotarian giving to the Foundation Every Year means putting into action the Foundation's mission of improving health, supporting education, and alleviating poverty. So let's do it.
