OUR FOUNDATION NEWSLETTER (#92) MARCH 2010 http://www.ourfoundation.info Please click on the “new” icon for the March 2010 issue.
Dear Colleagues: You’ll find this March issue informative and interesting. Our two major fundraising projects, the Gates $200 million Polio Challenge and the Rotary Centers Major Gifts Initiative (RCMGI) presents an opportunity for me to update both and answer the question “ … aren’t they in competition with one another?” What differentiates them? The keyword is Legacy. The RCMGI has raised $45 million dollars from less than 300 donors while the Polio Challenge has received donations from thousands. R.I. Past President Frank Devlyn wrote what will be your legacy? “Living forever in the physical sense is not possible,” he said, “but to leave a legacy that lasts in perpetuity might just be the next best thing. The Rotary Foundation’s Permanent Fund enables Rotarians to create their own legacy to do good in the world forever.”
Enjoy all of the in-depth stories in this March 2010 Our Foundation newsletter.
Most Sincerely, Eddie Blender, eblender@aol.com Publisher, Our Foundation Newsletter
