FIRST, A REPEAT OF LAST WEEK'S MINUTE,
BECAUSE IT IS PERTINENT TO OUR DISCUSSION TOMORROW:
WHAT IS THE ROTARY FOUNDATION’S “DISTRICT DESIGNATED FUND”?
At the end of every contribution year, each Rotary district’s contributions to the Annual Fund are divided into two funds. 50% is credited to the District Designated Fund (DDF). The District Designated Fund is allocated by the District to fund the Rotary Foundation programs in which it chooses to participate, such as District Grants, Global Grants, Disaster Response, or Polio! DDF even receives a 100% match from our Foundation when used in a Global Grant.
NOW THIS WEEK'S:
WHAT IS THE ROTARY FOUNDATION’S “WORLD FUND”?
At the end of every contribution year, each Rotary district’s contributions to the Annual Fund- SHARE are divided into two funds: 50%is credited to the World Fund (WF) and 50% is credited to the District Designated Fund (DDF). The World Fund is used by The Rotary Foundation to pay for the worldwide programs available to all Rotary districts, such as Global Grants.
It is this funding formula which truly makes The Rotary Foundation an integral part of Rotary International.
