<div><b>Celebrate Generosity and Success with our District 5130 Clubs</b><br>
<b>at the November Rotary Foundation Celebrations </b><br>
<br>
<strong>Hello Club Presidents, Club Foundation Chairs, Club Secretaries and Assistant Governors! If your club Foundation Chair is not listed in the District Database please forward this email to them</strong><br>
<br>
<b>Please share this information with all of your club members.</b><br>
Our Rotary Foundation Celebrations are on the calendar. The Foundation South event will be at the Healdsburg Golf Course at Tayman on November 15, from 12pm to 4pm; and the Foundation North event will be at the Eureka Pacific Elks Lodge on November 22, from 12 to 4. Registration is open, and we look forward to seeing you there.<br>
Your hostess will be PDG Kristine Redko, so expect music, games, love, laughter and heartwarming stories. Small reveal, together we increased total giving to The Rotary Foundation by 80% in last Rotary Year over the 24-25 Rotary Year. How About That!<br>
Cost is $35.00 per person and that includes lunch, non-alcoholic beverages and dessert.<br>
A cash bar will be available at both events.<br>
<br>
We will be holding the annual Foundation Donation Thank-You drawing at both events and want to make sure that you have a bit more information.<br>
<br>
1. <b>Foundation Donation Thank-You</b> <strong>Drawing Instructions and Tickets: </strong>Attached you will find some instructions as to how the drawing works. I've also attached the template for the tickets so you can print off as many of these as you need. Please use plain white copy paper.<br>
<br>
2. <strong>How to Donate: </strong>In addition to getting drawing tickets for giving that has already been done since November 2025 (see below), please make sure to talk about the event and encourage your members to donate to The Rotary Foundation over the weeks to come. There are 2 ways they can do that: online through their Rotary.org log-in or submit a check payable to The Rotary Foundation.<br>
<br>
3. <b>Foundation Donation Thank-You</b> <strong>Drawing Prizes</strong>: We are asking all of the clubs to donate a basket or two for the event which will be used as prizes for the drawing at each of the events. Please don't spend a lot of money on these baskets but maybe have them be a fun representation of your area. Ball park is $50 plus in value.<br>
<br>
4. <b>Foundation Donation Thank-You</b> <strong>Drawing Tickets</strong>: Your members do not need to be present at the events, BUT we do need to make sure that we have all of your tickets in hand on that date. <br>
<br>
<strong>Club Foundation Chairs: </strong><strong>Please</strong> pull the report from Rotary.org for your members' foundation giving since November 2025 and create the tickets for them to fill out. If your records do not go back that far, please use the Four Way Test to determine the member’s donations. The contribution for the Thank you drawing tickets is 1 ticket for every $20 or 6 for $100. Please deliver the tickets to the drawing at the event in your area (either North or South).<br>
