1. What The Rotary Foundation means to me The Rotary Foundation gives me a chance to HELP and to sow seeds of HOPE for those who need HELP and HOPE. The Rotary Foundation gives me the possibility of doing good in small matters as well as big, and to inspire others to do so. To keep The Rotary Foundation sparkling and active is a matter of great concern for me.
