Anyone in the community can make a donation to a humanitarian cause or disaster response through the highly-trusted Rotary Foundation.
The Rotary Foundation has been awarded the highest possible ranking (4 stars) by Charity Navigator (USA). 91% of funds go direct to awards and operations. Rotarians on the ground provide crucial support to make sure that the projects are delivered in the most practical and effective way to meet needs.
The Rotary Foundation is organised as a public charity operated exclusively for charitable purposes and governed by a Board of Trustees. The operations of Rotary International, a member organisation, are overseen by its Board of Directors. The headquarters of Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation are in Evanston, Illinois, USA, with associate foundations in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, and the United Kingdom.

Paul Harris Fellows
Paul Harris Fellow recognition is both an award for exemplary work in community service in helping those in need, and a method of recognising a substantial donation to The Rotary Foundation. A Paul Harris Fellow is an individual who contributes USD$1,000 or more to The Rotary Foundation's Annual Fund or other approved programs, or a person who has had that amount contributed in their name.
