Rotary Foundation Share the Love
 
Hopefully, everyone received the letter from Joe McNally, Foundation
Chair for the RCWS, about the Share the Love Campaign. 
 
In celebration of Valentine's Day, a donation of at least $100 payable to TRF’s Annual Fund-SHARE during the week of Valentine’s Day (Feb 11-17) qualifies you to receive 100 Foundation points. Additionally, District 7390 will match your donation with 100 Paul Harris points. Taking it a step further, the RCWS will also match your minimum $100 donation with 100 Paul Harris points. That means your $100 donation is equal to 300 Paul Harris points!
 
Donate at https://my.rotary.org/en/donate
To receive your matching points, forward the confirmation email to the District Office and copy Bim.

Additionally, if our club plans on applying for a district grant for 2024-2025, the grant intent application is due by March 15. If club members have any ideas for a district grant, please forward them to Bim.
