3. Relevance of the Foundation Because I have sat for 13 years where you are sitting this morning, I can identify somewhat with you and your interests. There’s a very important question to ask: “What relevance does RIF have to your life and with your involvement here?” Each one of us joined RI for important reasons: the networking factor, the social factor, and the community- interest factor. However, we hear many appeals here. Every time someone presents a project at our weekly meetings, we each need to step back and ask ourselves some questions about its relevance.

4. Relevance Checker (1) Is this appeal founded on values that I hold dear? (2) Is project well administered, and does it actually carry out the mission it established? (3) Does it help me reach out to situations that I cannot reach except in this way? (4) Does this appeal to me? And finally, (5) Is it a good way for me to invest my bucks and demonstrate who I am as a caring human being in my needy world?

5. Introduction The Rotary Foundation has an excellent history and track record. It is well established, and has drawn involvement from tens of thousands of Rotarians. I find myself attracted to it because it meets my criteria for relevance for me and how it envisions meeting major needs of our world today. I hope that this presentation feels especially relevant to you.

6. Introduction Gerry and I present this program today with high hopes that you as individuals and as a group will find this on-going project of the Foundation to be one of the most meaningful things we do at Rotary. Please give us your undivided attention and your best and highest priority motives!
