This week's Rotary Foundation Thought is about how effectively our Foundation matches people with money for positive results.

In the words of Arch Klumph: "Money alone does little good. Individual service is helpless without money. The two together can be a godsend to civilization." Your financial resources combined with your time, energy and talent is critical to Rotary's mission. It is worth noting that one hundred percent of our Annual Programs Fund (APF) contributions are spent on Foundation programs. These contributions are invested for a period of three years, with a portion of the investment earnings paying for the administrative and fund development expenses.

The unique funding cycle keeps the engine of The Rotary Foundation running throughout the world.
