What The Rotary Foundation
means to me
HELP
The Rotary Foundation gives me a chance to
and to sow seeds of HOPE
for those who need HELP and HOPE.
The Rotary Foundation gives me the possibility
of doing good in small matters as well as big,
and to inspire others to do so.
To keep The Rotary Foundation sparkling
and active is a matter of great concern for me.
