And welcome to the very First Week of RI’s Month of Vocational Service. The Rotary Foundation Trustee Chair, Barry Rassin reminds Rotarians and friends of TRF to
give more in 2024 because the needs are limitless; not only that, since “The Rotary Foundation is an excellent steward, you can be confident that your gift will make a difference, whether it’s in polio eradication, literacy initiatives, peace education, or any other area in which we excel…In 2024, resolve to share the Foundation with others. The Foundation is too great to keep to ourselves. Spread the word during your fundraisers and events. Let the public know that The Rotary Foundation plays a significant role in everything we do, including in our many partnerships. Anyone can support the Foundation, even people who are not in Rotary…Whatever you decide to do in 2024, commit to keeping our Foundation in your plans. I can’t wait to hear about all the great things we will accomplish this year.” (Rotary, January 2024: 56).
Hopefully, Rotarians in 2024 will continue to make the world a much better place for everyone.
