The Foundation's mission is to manage the funds entrusted to it in a lawful manner and to make available charitable funding in perpetuity for qualified beneficiaries with a primary focus on children's charities. Q: How do I get involved in helping the Foundation to grow? A: The Foundation currently has almost 100% of its PWR Club members as contributing members to the Foundation. Getting involved is easy...just become a sustaining member by making a contribution of any amount. Most members contribute a minumum of $100 per year with the goal of becoming a Point West Rotary Foundation Fellow, reached when contributions total $1,000 in aggregate. And the club helps you in the process by matching your donation up to $50 per year! Therefore you can reach your first PWRF Fellow within 7 years instead of 10. |
