CNY Rotary (District 7180) has been recognized by The Rotary Foundation as one of only 66 districts worldwide to achieve at least 90% compliance in grant reporting for the 2024–25 Rotary year — representing just one in every eight districts globally.
 
This distinction reflects the transparency, accountability, and stewardship championed by our Foundation Committee, led by PDG Don Reese. The Rotary Foundation’s grant process involves many moving parts, and Don and his team have gone above and beyond—offering guidance to clubs from initial application through final reporting. Their dedication has enabled impactful projects both across our communities and around the world.
 
As we celebrate The Rotary Foundation on November 15, let’s raise a cup of BBQ sauce in honor of this outstanding achievement! 
Join us in person or via Zoom for a casual, festive luncheon as we celebrate the impact of our Rotary Foundation, recognize clubs and members for their giving, and learn about new ways to support this vital work.
 
Register now—and we’ll even try to figure out how to get the BBQ through Zoom for our virtual guests!
