Share your Rotary Story! 
This year, Rotary District 5650 will be embarking on an exciting new marketing campaign unlike anything we've ever done! A central part of our effort is to tell the stories of Rotarians like you who are serving your communities through video and written articles.
Help us showcase the benefits you receive through Rotary membership and the good we do in our local communities and around the world.
 
Nominate yourself (which is highly encouraged) or a fellow Rotarian for consideration now!
 
We're also looking for Rotarians to join the public image committee and help with this campaign.
 
Last, we've launched a request for proposal to seek bids for the videography element of our campaign with submissions due August 20th.
 
Visit our new microsite at RotaryMemberStories.org to get involved.
 
Yours in Rotary,
 
Jared Bakewell

Rotary Foundation Minute
Our Rotary Foundation Committee (the charitable arm of Rotary Intl) will be bringing you a "Rotary Foundation Minute" each week this fall.

The Rotary Foundation is the charitable arm of Rotary. The Foundation
transforms donations into service projects.

The mission of the Foundation is to enable Rotary members to advance
world understanding, goodwill, and peace through improvement of
health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.

The Foundation was started in 1917 by RI President Arch Klumph. The
initial contribution was $26.50. Since that time the Foundation has
sponsored 4.5 billion dollars worth of projects and programs.

Charity Navigator has given the RF a 4 star rating, its highest rating, for 9
straight years. Only 1% of the rated charities have achieved this. 92%
of the funds contributed go to awards and operations.
