World Series of Giving - 8th Inning

Posted by David Dosier on May 02, 2022

Welcome back, Rotary baseball fans. We may be late in this inaugural World Series of Giving season, but have some of our clubs ever brought out their strongest hitters! We now have two clubs with over FIVE Home Runs scored and one more knocking on the door for number FOUR. Who would have guessed last summer at the beginning of the season that we would see this kind of generosity for the good deeds of the Rotary Foundation. And. . .we still have one more inning to go!

District Launches Polio Plus Society

What is the PolioPlus Society(PPS)?

In an effort to increase sustainable giving, the PolioPlus Society was formed to encourage Rotarians to commit to a minimum of $100/year to the PolioPlus Fund until polio is eradicated from the face of the earth. Society members receive a special society pin. The PolioPlus Society Pledge form serves as the application and can be found here.

District 6420

During 2020-2021, clubs were encouraged to contribute $50/member for polio eradication through its members and community awareness programs.
The district PolioPlus committee will continue offer speakers and progress updates and continue to encourage ongoing club fundraisers and community awareness events.
If you currently contribute over $100 / year to the foundation, consider designating $100 or more of that amount to PolioPlus, thus fulfilling a PolioPlus Society Pledge. This will also help fulfill the EREY (Every Rotarian Every Year) goal for your club.
Donations may be made through club treasurers, or directly to the Rotary International website. Be sure to use your “My Rotary” page to ensure proper crediting to your Paul Harris account.
