Fond du Lac Noon Rotary Club Est. 1919

WELCOMES YOU!

Fond du Lac Noon Rotary has a big announcement to make!

As we approach our 100^th birthday the club is planning to award a major gift, a $100,000 grant, to the Fond du Lac community.

Because investing in our community is important, Noon Rotary would like to solicit ideas for the 100 year project from the community at large. Criteria –$100,000 project should:

· Have a significant, positive impact on the Fond du Lac community

· Cost Fond du Lac Noon Rotary a maximum of $100,000

· Be a gift to the community that bears the Noon Rotary name

· Should not simply maintain the status quo, but should be a new, visible, lasting, and sustainable presence in Fond du Lac.

· Require no on-going Rotary financial support after completion; however, support could be provided by another organization or entity.

· Be completed within the anticipated Rotary budget and not incur any future debt for Rotary or any other organization.

Come on Fond du Lac! What is your great idea? What could $100,000 do for this community? What would you like to see? Noon Rotary is looking for ideas….good ideas…even great ideas. You do not have to work out all the details. Talk about this at dinner with your family, at your book club, in study hall! Let us hear your great ideas!

Submissions in writing should reach the Club by March 21, 2018:

The community project announcement will take place at the Club’s Changing of the Guard meeting in June, with a public community announcement following that meeting.

"Making A Difference"

Since 1919, this is what the Fond du Lac Rotary has been doing for our community – MAKING A DIFFERENCE! As we enter our 99th year, our 140 members are guided by this theme. Each year we provide $60,000 to many local charities focused on children and our community. In addition, we contribute another $20,000 to Rotary International to support their global projects, such as eradicating polio. Over the next three years, Rotary International has committed $150M to ending polio worldwide, which will be matched 2-for-1 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Our weekly meetings provide an excellent opportunity for members to network with other community leaders from Fond du Lac’s business, government, academic, medical, and legal fields. Our meetings also include interesting speakers providing an update on local, state, or national issues. The meetings are short, fun, and designed to provide everyone time to dine and have informal discussions with others.

The contagious, positive enthusiasm our members have for the Rotary mission, “Service Above Self”, adds life to each of our gatherings. If you’d like to be part of an organization where everyone is building our community, both locally and worldwide, contact us at fdlnoonrotary@gmail.com.
