7 How do we reach ONE MILLION DOLARS Amount# rotarians Every Rotarian Every Year ($120/yr) $375, % Rotarians in Dollar a day ($300/yr) $313, % Paul Harris Society ($1000/yr) $219, White Hat Society ($5000/yr) $97,60020 TOTAL$1,005,300

8 Giving now is important In 2002, when the stock market was down, 70 percent of the population in the USA gave an average of $2000. I think Rotarians are better than 70% of the population. Remember what you give this year affects what we have to spend in 3 years. Plan what you can afford to give every year and then implement a way to make sure you give every year with an increase. Use matching points to get your Paul Harris fellow and help others in your clubs. 8

9 Food for Thought Only about 25% of our district Rotarians give $100 or more. Last year 5 clubs have given nothing! Approximately %50 of our Rotarians give nothing to annual giving! We are at a per capita giving level of $126, last year we were at $153! But - We are the best in our zone and were last year also. Our District gave $1,552,196 last year, due to Polio & Benefactor giving. 9
