International Service Update - November 2011

A review of the Club's International Service Projects over the last few years.


In view of the talks on The Rotary Foundation (TRF) we had in early November  2011 - Foundation Month - it seems appropriate that we should "blow our own trumpet" just a little bit.  The table below shows how we were able transform $11,950 into an amazing $107,707, thanks to cooperation with other Rotary Clubs and the wonders of TRF Matching Grants.  This report first appeared in the November 2011 Bulletin but I believe it deserves putting on record here for a - potentially - much wider audience.
