FIVE  POWERFUL REASONS FOR BELONGING TO ROTARY

1. Friendship
In an increasingly complex world, Rotary provides one of the most basic human needs: the need for friendship and fellowship. It is one of two reasons why Rotary began in 1905.

2. Business Development
The second original reason for Rotary's beginning is business development. Everyone needs to network. Rotary consists of a cross section of every business community. Its members come from all walks of life. Rotarians help each other.

3. Personal Growth and Development
Membership in Rotary continues one's growth and education in human relations and personal development.

4. Leadership Development
Rotary is an organization of leaders and successful people. Serving in Rotary positions is like a college education. Leadership: learning how to motivate, influence and lead leaders.

5. Citizenship in the community
Membership in a Rotary club makes one a better community citizen. The average Rotary club consists of the most active citizens of any community

SPECIAL REPORT ON OUR INTERNATIONAL SERVICE ACTIVITIES

                                                     

o        Director Pushpa announced that our Matching Grant for a water project with the Rotary Club of Thane East has been approved by The Rotary Foundation.  It will provide clean water to a village of about 1,500 people using a bore well. 

o        The Rotary Club of Pungar, India reported that it will complete 1,500 cataract surgeries in November to meet the commitments under our Matching Grant with that club.

o        The Rotary Club of Thane East finished another Matching Grant project, which we helped fund, in June for a check dam to provide clean drinking water.  The club had funds left over and is seeking approval to use them for a small water purification unit.  The Rotary Foundation must approve the request.

o        Treasurer Bill indicated that the club has sent a check for $370 in support of the Green Planet project in Indonesia.

What are Foundation Recognition Points?

Whenever someone who has achieved Paul Harris Fellow (PHF) status makes an additional contribution to the APF (Annual Programs Fund), he or she is credited not only with the donation but also with an equal number of Foundation Recognition Points which may be assigned to another person.  These "points," (in dollars) may assist the other person in becoming a PHF or in reaching the next highest level of PHF recognition.

                                             The Test   Click here for Story of the 4 WayTest

The 4 Way Test
   Of the things we think, say or do:
  1. Is it the
TRUTH?
2. Is it
FAIR to all concerned?
 3. Will it build
GOODWILL and
         better
FRIENDSHIPS
?
4. Will it be
BENEFICIAL to all
          concerned?  

To some their Rotary membership is almost the most precious thing in life.
Why this affection for Rotary? It is the love of man for his fellow man. When stripped of all formalities and creeds, fellowship flourishes. Rotary draws no lines of politics or religion, Mohamedans, Budhists, Christians and Jews, break bread together in happy fellowship.

                                                     From My Road to Rotary by Paul P Harris, Founder
