Did you know that, for every dollar you contribute to The Rotary Foundation (TRF), you get a "Foundation Recognition Point (FRP)"? That's in addition to the points you accumulate towards your own designation as a Paul Harris Fellow. These FRPs can be used to award a Paul Harris pin to a person you think is deserving of the recognition.One way to donate is through "Rotary Direct", Rotary’s recurring giving program. You can donate using a credit card or a debit card that is associated with a personal checking account. Arrange monthly, quarterly or annual gifts. You decide the amount, method, and timing.
From now until May 31st, if you sign up for Rotary Direct, a district Rotarian will transfer a number of Recognition Points to you, equal to your cumulative annual donation.
Standard Offer: Sign up for Rotary Direct by May 31, 2024, by submitting the Rotary Direct form or by signing into My Rotary at www.rotary.org and clicking on “DONATE”. Select “Annual Fund – Share” as the recipient of your gift. Scroll down to DONATE, then click “recurring”.
If you already are using Rotary Direct for regular giving to The Rotary Foundation, we will offer you 100 points for increasing the size of your gift by $100 per year. Please let us know that you have completed this, or if you need help please let us know.
Bonus Offer: If you sign up for Rotary Direct at the Paul Harris Society level of $85 a month by May 31, 2024, we will give you 250 Paul Harris Recognition Points.
We will manage the transfer of points to your TRF account at the end of the promotion. That's all there is to it!
