Thank you for a remarkable year!

Rotarians and friends of Rotary responded with extraordinary generosity again during the 2010-11 Rotary year. Contributions to our Annual Programs Fund exceeded US$100 million for the fourth time in history, and we far surpassed our goal of $95.5 million. In fact, contributions to the Annual Programs Fund were the second-highest ever, at nearly $108 million. Thanks to each of you for your efforts and personal financial support.
2010-11 RI President Ray Klinginsmith and 2010-11 Foundation Trustee Chair Carl-Wilhelm Stenhammar appreciate your contributions. Watch their video message. |
