RB Sunrise Rotary Club's Rotary Foundation Support
 
The Rotary Foundation is the philanthropic arm of Rotary International.  Rotarians and others donate money to the foundation.  The money is then used in several ways.  A major focus of the Rotary Foundation since the late 1980's has been the eradication of polio everywhere on the planet. This effort by Rotary in concert with governments and health organizations has resulted in the elimination of endemic polio in every country in the world except Afghanistan, Pakistan and Nigeria. In addition to this, Rotarians also donate to the Rotary Foundation in order to fund humanitarian projects through Global Grants for international projects and District grants for local projects. 
 
Rancho Bernardo Sunrise has achieved so great milestones in support of the Rotary Foundation in Rotary year (2014-2015).  The are:
     •  One of only 5 clubs of 66 District 5340 clubs to have contributions by every member.
     •  A per capita giving of 223.82  annual giving - #10 in the district
     •  Five Paul Harris Society members  (Members who donate $1000 every year)
