FOUNDATION

MARCH IS FOUNDATION PLEDGE FULFILLMENT MONTH As a Paul Harris Sustaining Club, Innsbrook Rotary asks each Rotarian to give at least $100 annually to The Rotary Foundation. Many of you have pledged gifts of that and more. March is the time when we must fulfill our pledges in order to have our gifts processed in time for Rotary's fiscal year end. If you do not recall your pledge, please email Charles Moncure at cmoncure@dominionpartners.com. If you failed to make a pledge in November, slap yourself, and bring Charles a check before the end of March. We look forward to being 100% again this year. Thank you for your support of The Rotary Foundation. Every Rotarian, Every Year
