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.

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