A new Rotary year beckons for Foundation Advocates

In less than a month the class of 2015 -2016 Foundation Advocates will complete their duties in that role. With the advent of the 2016-2017 year there will be a new Foundation Advocate structure and a newly defined role for Advocates  as Past District Governor Chuck Arnason assumes the role as the District Rotary Foundation Committee Chair.  There will be more published in the near future about the newly designed Foundation Advocate program.  For now it is provident to recognize the 2015-16 Foundation Advocates and thank them for a job well done.

Ode to the club fundraising analysis

Club Foundation Chairs, Club Fundraising Analysis, Club Giving Status, Club Goal History, Delmar Dayton, Every Rotarian Every Year EREY, Foundation Advocates, Giving History, Jan Rowley, Membership Levels, Paul Harris Society PHS, Per Capita History, Presidents-Elect

Conceding to Erato  we will continue the poetic theme which appears frequently in this weekly Foundation update … this is an ode, in prose form, to the Club Fundraising Analysis Report.  Every Club has one of these concise jewels:

Club presidents, presidents-elect, and club Rotary Foundation chairs have access to this nifty little one-page report which is found when those leaders log into My Rotary and click on Foundation Reports. It gives a historic five-year snapshot of the club’s Foundation history in six topic areas.  The analysis includes a year-to-date status for the current year and four years history prior to that in the areas of Annual Fund Goal, Annual Fund Contributions, Total Contributions, Annual Fund Per Capita (Club & District), Membership Levels, and a three-year snapshot of Every Rotarian Every Year (EREY), Sustaining, and Paul Harris Society (PHS) Eligible Members.

A Club Fundraising Analysis Report

This lovely report can help the current club president and club Rotary Foundation chair check the current status of giving in relation to the club’s annual fund giving goal.  What a gift to clubs wanting to ‘Bee’ A Gift to the World.

The report can also help the president-elect and incoming club foundation chair set practical giving goals for the coming year based on the goal and giving history.   If you need help the District Foundation Advocates also have access to the Foundation reports for their clubs as does each club’s Area Governor.

Shout Outs:

to Delmar Dayton, Foundation Advocate for Area 4 and member of the South Richmond Rotary Club, for a delightful conversation.

Earl Hale 2008

to Past District Governor and Major Donor,  Earl Hale, home from the hospital and back in the thick of things.

Be a rotary nerd … continued

Get your nerd on … analyzing data for your club(s):

Last week we laid the ground work for club foundation chairs (CFCs) to have the My Rotary credentials to access club information and, by extension, Advocates’ access to his or her area clubs’ reports.

Nerdy club reports and how to use them:

There is a ton of club information available, but here the three primary reports are described.  A more detailed description of the reports and how to use them can be found on the ‘Resources and Documents’ page of this blog, 7600advocates.wordpress.com.

The Monthly Contribution Report (MCR) tracks the contribution history in a selected year for the Annual Fund (APF),  Other Giving (things like Polio Plus), and the Endowment (formerly the Permanent) Fund.  Use this report to track progress of the club towards its APF goal, cultivate support for contributions to the Foundation, and identify progress towards club banner recognition for the club.

The Every Rotarian Every Year Eligibility Report (EREY) tracks member achievement towards recognition status of EREY, Rotary Foundation Sustaining Member (RFSM), and towards Paul Harris Society.  Use of this report should be delicate and not for general publication or circulation.  Such information is sensitive and should be used only to assist the CFC and Club President in helping a member track and reach his or her giving goal.

The Club Recognition Summary (CRS) tracks member recognition amounts, dates of last contribution and designation, and the available Foundation Recognition Points.  It includes the number of Paul Harris Fellows, Major Donors, Bequest Society members, Rotarian donors and non-donors, and non-Rotarian donors.  It also tracks all-time giving by the club.  The instructions for this report on the Resources and Documents page includes information on how a club or a member can use Foundation Recognition Points. Again, this report should be treated sensitively.

Shout outs:

To Sylvia Allen of the Lawrenceville club for forwarding a picture after our Foundation Bee all that you can bee 1380843_695846030428583_495469223_npresentation to that fine club.

To Heather Martin, Dennis Wool, Delmar Dayton, Michael Binns, Dan Jones, Carl Duffey, Jan Rowley  who made the attendees at the District Foundation Awards Banquet feel so welcome.  Note that Jan is always ‘beeing’ an Advocate for the Foundation.

To Dana Rieves of the Prince George Club for pitching in … no matter was is asked.

To Charles Moncure, recipient of the 1st James Pierce Foundation Leadership Award.

District Grants and Paul Harris Society

District Rotary Foundation Leaders are on a roll

The month of September, has been filled with District and District Rotary Committee Foundation leaders traveling to the clubs to personally bestowLouis Tayon Area 13 Michael Broadhurst PHF + 6 Paul Harris Society Recognitions and to award District Grants to recipient clubs. The awarding of the District Grants will probably be accomplished by the District Conference, but hopefully the joyful task of awarding the Paul Harris Society Recognitions will continue throughout the year. Often in these presentations and awards the Area Foundation Advocates are called upon to assist as was Louis Tayon (area 13 Advocate) earlier this month as he and District Governor Gary Chenault recognized Michael Broadhurst with his Paul Harris Fellow+ 6 pin.

Paul Harris Society –Annual Fund — District & Global Grants

The last couple of our blogs have focused on Every Rotary Every Year (EREY) as a worthy giving goal for clubs and Rotarians across District 7600 because 50% of all Annual Fund Giving comes back to the District every three years and matriculates to the clubs via district and global grants. As District Giving Chair, Ken Hodge noted, because of how District Designated Funds (DDF) can be leveraged, that 50% can become 87% in some  circumstances.

You may be asked about the Paul Harris Society.

The Paul Harris Society is one of the giving levels of the Annual Fund.  Upon enrolling in the Paul Harris Society the Rotarian promises to donate $1000 each year to The Rotary Foundation until that persona selects a different level of giving to the Foundation. As Advocates and Club Foundation Chairs consider recommending membership in the Paul Harris Society if an inquiring  Rotarian is already donating at or near the annual $1000 level. If the Paul Harris Society membership doesn’t match the giving interests of that Rotarian at this time, any level of giving to the Annual Fund can help do good in the world.

Foundation Advocates and Club Foundation Chairs

Questions about the Paul Harris Society and other levels of giving are among the many questions your club leaders and especially new members may have of you as Foundation Advocates and Club Foundation Chairs.  Carol Woodward is always ready to assist you when, and if,  you get stumped or if you just want to know more about the information available to share with the clubs. You can reach Carol at woodwardcd@aol.com or woodward739@gmail.com.

Shout Outs

To Delmar Dayton Area 4 Foundation Advocate and patient member of the South Richmond Club for his pleasant phone call.  The Advocates Chair gets lonely sometimes.

To Heather Martin Area 17 Foundation Advocate for posing with District Governor Nominee John Padgett at the Foundation Workshop in August.  The use of the photo in this blog header does justice to neither of them.

To all Foundation Advocates, Club Foundation Chairs, and to any readers of this blog … what information would you like to see addressed here?  Would anyone like to do a guest blog?

See you in the funny papers …  and at District Conference — Carol
