Rotary Foundation

The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into service projects that change lives — both close to home and around the world. Its mission is to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by improving health, supporting education, protecting the environment, and alleviating poverty.

At Como Rotary, we proudly support this life-changing work. Our goal is to contribute approximately $100 per member each year, including support for the PolioPlus program, Rotary’s global effort to eradicate polio.


What Can One Donation Do?

Your gift, no matter the size, makes a real impact:

  • $0.60 can protect a child from polio for life.
  • $50 can help provide access to clean, safe water.
  • $500 can launch an anti-bullying campaign, creating safer environments for young people.

Why Give Through The Rotary Foundation?

  • The Foundation has received Charity Navigator’s 4-star rating (its highest) every year since 2008 — ranking it among the top 1% of charities worldwide for transparency and accountability.
  • Rotary’s global grants support sustainable, community-led projects that address real needs in areas like disease prevention, literacy, and disaster response.
  • Through PolioPlus, Rotary has helped reduce polio cases by over 99.9% and vaccinated nearly 3 billion children in 122 countries.
