Maple Valley Rotary Club member, Bob Smith, will share with you why this year’s Foundation drive is so important to the work of Rotary.

From Rotary.org

The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives both close to home and around the world.

Since it was founded more than 100 years ago, the Foundation has spent more than $4 billion on life-changing, sustainable projects.

With your help, we can make lives better in your community and around the world.

Our mission

The mission of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.

What impact can one donation have?

• For as little as 60 cents, a child can be protected from polio.
• $50 can provide clean water to help fight waterborne illness.
• $500 can launch an antibullying campaign and create a safe environment for children.

The Rotary Club of Maple Valley is currently meeting every 2nd & 4th Friday morning at 7:15 AM at the Greater Maple Valley Community Center and the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays at 5 PM at Vintage Vino and Espresso.
