Since the PolioPlus Program’s inception in 1985, more than two billion children have received oral polio vaccine. The extraordinary dedication of Rotary members has played a critical role in bringing polio to the brink of eradication. What was once a dream, will soon be realized. Rotary’s commitment to the eradication of polio encouraged other international organizations to take up the cause. By 2005, five million people who would otherwise have been paralyzed were walking because they were immunized against polio. This past year we’ve seen a significant drop in cases Down to only 4 polio endemic countries – and only pockets within those four countries (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nigeria) Recently developed more effective and targeted “monovalant” vaccines This change from a ‘one-size fits all’ approach is considered by many to be the single greatest development since the launch of PolioPlus in 1985 Rotary developed a new model for public-private cooperative efforts in working with its world partners for PolioPlus. More than one million Rotarians worldwide have contributed to PolioPlus. And of course, we have now partnered with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to inject a much needed $200 million to help finish the job.

Actions du district 7020 Help provide equipment to the New Amsterdam Public Hospital in Georgetown, Guyana Help provide affordable water purifiers for impoverished families in rural Haiti. Help promote HIV/AIDS awareness among orphans in Nakuru, Kenya. (Facilitate discussion on how other districts are spending their increased DDF, and educating their members for the need for continued support) Behind each project is a Rotarian and a Rotary club, weaving a story of life changing opportunities. It is important that we use these stories to recruit new members and retain current ones. Get people engaged and involved – participation financially AND in the programs our contributions support. These are just some of the recent grants clubs in this district have participated in. Help provide individual dictionaries to every 3rd grader in the county.

1$ Notre impact dans le monde Une personne sur six vit avec moins de 1$ par jour La moitié de la population mondiale vit avec moins de 2$ par jour Why is what we do important? [Hold up one dollar] What does $1 mean to you; in your country what can you buy with one dollar? Now Think about what one dollar can buy on a global, humanitarian scale. What do your Foundation Dollars buy? [polio vaccine, books, clean water, hope, peace….] $1 is the difference between life, and death, for half of the world. Our contribution are changing lives; one dollar is literally saving a life. Did you know that over a billion people, or roughly one in six, live in extreme poverty, living on less than US$1 a day, and some 2.8 billion live on less than two dollars a day. All told, nearly half the world's population lives in poverty – that's 2.8 billion people living on less than two dollars a day. As Rotarians, you have the good fortune to not be included in this statistic, but you do share a moral commitment to address it. You must put $1 in perspective of the purchasing power of OUR Foundation. Source: NetAid; The World Bank

Notre impact dans le monde 100,2 millions $ Fonds versés en 2006-2007 pour lutter contre la pauvreté, améliorer la santé et développer l’éducation Last year, because Rotarians collectively came together with a share desire to end suffering in the world, and promote world understanding and peace, we were able to put US $100 million to good use around the world. About half (45%) was used to support our humanitarian programs, about one-fourth (23%) supported our educational programs, and another fourth (24%) was spent in our fight towards Polio eradication. I will go into greater detail in just a minute. Your contributions to the Annual Programs Fund are doing a world of good, and I want to thank you for that. In 2006-07, your District contributed a total of $______ to the Annual Programs Fund. Rotarians and clubs in this district are showing solid support for our Rotary Foundation, and given the slide I just showed you, imagine the kind of impact $100 million has around the world. [Transition to next slide] But what keeps us coming back each year is knowing that this is just scratching the surface of our unrealized potential.

Let’s talk about the impact of TRF on a global scale. [Here’s how contributions have grown in recent years: 2002-03 $55 million ---2003-04 $70 million ---2004-05 $85 million ---2005-06 $92.6 million --- 2006-07 $103.3 million.] What does this growth mean? What does this growth mean, in terms of program support? Through the SHARE funding system, it means more matching grants, ambassadorial scholars, peace scholars, Group Study Exchange teams. Even more compelling is to frame the “purchasing power” and real value of a dollar given to the Annual Programs Fund in the context of our unique SHARE system. Where did these $100.2 million in program awards come from? [await answer and advance slide] [The Foundation spent US$44.8 million on humanitarian programs and $23.3 million on educational programs in 2006-07, made possible by District Designated Fund contributions through SHARE in 2003-04. In other words our Foundation Awarded $97.9 million for programs last year, made possible by the $70.5 million raised 3 years prior.

L’avenir – aujourd’hui Le Fonds permanent est le fonds de dotation du Rotary. Les dons ne sont pas dépensés. Ils sont investis à perpétuité. Seuls les intérêts servent à financer les programmes de la Fondation. The goal of the Rotary Foundation is to advance world understanding, goodwill and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education and the alleviation of poverty. The Permanent Fund plays a significant role in helping us achieve this goal.

SHARE Débours Sélection/par-ticipants Plan/Alloca- tion Contribution Année 3 Année 2 Revenus couvrent les frais administratifs de la Fondation Année 1 Fonds mondial 50% Fifty percent (50%) of all contributions come back to our district through District Designated Funds (DDF) in three years to spend on educational and humanitarian programs chosen by us; even grants that may be used for projects in our local community. Through the SHARE system, our contributions to the Foundation help both the locally and globally. Here’s an example: Year 1: Your district raised $200,000 in 2005-06 Year 2: $100,000 is available in DDF for programs we select. Year 3: Spending takes place in 2008-09 So remember, the legacy you and your spouse leave with your club next year, will again be realized 3 years later – based on the number of programs your club and your fellow clubs in your district can participate in….. Our nonprofit work addresses various diverse causes, locally and internationally World reach is greater than the United Nations - we go where politicians and religious groups cannot Rotary can mobilize people-to-people contacts Why wouldn’t your Rotary Foundation be among your charities of choice?

Élaboration des objectifs Maintenir ou accroître les effectifs Monter des actions répondant aux besoins des populations desservies localement ou à l’étranger Soutenir la Fondation en participant aux programmes et à son financement Développer des dirigeants susceptibles d’assumer des fonctions au-delà du club

Des objectifs efficaces Partagés Quantifiables Ambitieux Réalisables Dans des délais précis What are you doing to help districts with GOAL SETTING? Are their ways you can improve upon the process in your Districts? How might you use the process as a way to engage your clubs in the Foundation? [It begins a conversation DGs and Foundation Chairs want to have with club presidents throughout the year on matters such as TRF education, member involvement in projects, and fundraising.] The recommended average amount per member internationally is US$100. How do you address that benchmark in your area? Is it too high; too low? What strategies do you employ when helping clubs and district identify realistic but challenging goals? Examine your club goal and achievement status by looking at your club’s prior year history as a starting point in setting your goal for this year. Establish a new goal that is realistic, but also builds on your previous year total. Dedicated a club fundraiser with proceeds to benefit TRF Consider an estimated 10-15% increase over last year's contributions, or gain 100% member participation. Look at a multi-year giving report for signs of how to stretch your goal. Look at your member PHF levels to determine new fund raising potential; Consider what impact your Paul Harris Society Members can have on your goal. Consider current Benefactors, Bequest Society members, PHF+7 awardees and Paul Harris Society members to determine a potential goal for Major Gift donors in your club. Consider current Major Donors, Paul Harris Society members and Benefactors to determine a potential goal for new Bequest Society members in your club. Ultimately, we must use the process to engage our members in the programs.

Élaboration des objectifs Annual Programs Fund Contributions & Restricted Contributions Compared to Annual Giving Goal Let’s now look at our contributions – APF-SHARE and ALL Restricted gifts now combined. Our annual giving goals seem extremely ambitious, but you can see that the generosity of our members far surpasses these goals EVERY year. What happened in the 02-03 Rotary year? PEFC. We have only begun to realize the potential of our Foundation – and it’s support by Rotarians around the world. $100 per capita worldwide not only is a realistic and achievable goal – it is perhaps too low! Why are we unable to re-capture that level of participation, enthusiasm and involvement? What are we missing?

Le pouvoir du vécu What we are missing is the tangible story that our members can truly get behind. This is why our Polio Eradication efforts have been so successful. This is why our Restricted giving continues to grow. This is why we have not been able to realize our true capacity for support. Your job is to weave a story around the programs supported by the Annual Programs Fund – that carries the same impact and inspiration as the story of polio has.

Comment s’informer? Programmes de club sur la Fondation Vignettes Fondation Rotariens impliqués comme invités Faire connaître les programmes de la Fondation dans votre région Collectes de fonds sur toute l’année [Ask for comments?] November is Foundation Month … make a point to have several speakers present during Nov. (Amb Scholar, Grants Subcommittee Chair, DRFC Chair) A Foundation Meeting Minute is a brief “factoid” about TRF. History, programs, facts and figures … short but informative bits about TRF. Ask you club participants to share “Their Story” about their project or relationship, or trip. Highlight the great projects carried out for TRF. Interview your Scholars, your GSE Team or project beneficiary. [What does your club do to raise money for TRF?] 27

Quelle est l’utilité de la Fondation pour votre club ? Encourage & soutient les actions internationales Favorise la fidélisation et la participation active des membres Offre des opportunités de couverture médiatique Permet aux membres de décider de l’utilisation des fonds Est source de fierté et est valorisante So now you know the programs and flow of funds – your TRF chair and committee should know this level of detail. But as club President – a reasonable and logical question should be? How will TRF Help Your Club [Pause – ask for input] TRF provides opportunities for service projects - strengthens Int’l Svc committees – greater resource. Members join for service - Some for the International service. The key to retention is involvement. Many of our Foundation projects are “profound” and worthy of PR. Involve members to identify projects, (type, scope, etc.). Work with District Rotary Foundation Committee to create grants. World Community Service projects often provide clean water, essential medical equipment and educational supplies that make a profound difference in developing countries. This provides special gratification of helping those in need … can be more significant than our usual community service work. 28

Comment promouvoir la Fondation ? Favoriser un climat positif Choisir avec soin le responsable Fondation Fixer des objectifs et suivre les progrès Faire connaître la Fondation et collecter des fonds Utiliser les fonds Se servir des ressources mises à disposition par la Fondation [How can you support TRF?] Select a strong Rotary Foundation Chair Have a goal and work toward it. Find creative ways to raise money … [Ask the class for ideas] Don’t just view it as fund raising – USE the money on grants – Encourage Involvement Create positive culture of involvement and support - Promote the TRF - Talk about the Foundation during meetings – TRF minute, feature a member, Foundation alumni, Ambassadorial scholar Use District Resources – grants coordinator, training, leadership, stories, etc. 29

Quels rêves deviendront réalité ? A World without: Polio Hunger Despair Violence We began this session talking a bit about the “have not’s” – those living in extreme poverty. For poor people, this two-class world is a breeding ground for hopelessness, anger, and frustration…. Many of the people living in our world have little to lose from violence…. At Rotary, we enable ordinary women and men to do what only the wealthiest individuals in the world could do otherwise, all because of the collective efforts and collective contributions of Rotarians around the world. Help your DG’s, DGE’s and DGN’s develop a meaningful,, tangible case for support. Can you put a price tag on Peace? Ask yourselves, and ask your club members - What will you give to achieve it?
