Walter Boyes bequeathed £24,752 to the Club in 1988. Trustees invest the capital and any retained income. In its first full year the WB fund generated £766 in earnings.
In 2005 the capital valuation of the fund had grown to £53,794 and the annual income to £2928.
Each year 10% of the income from the WB fund is paid to The Rotary Foundation - our own charity.
