Dublin AM Rotary Foundation Annual Report
 
Susan Robenalt provided an annual update on our club's charitable foundation.  Founded in 1999, the foundation endowment has increased to a healthy balance due to great fundraising activities over many years and a prudent investment strategy.  With a separate board of directors, the Foundation is designed to serve the charitable giving goals of Dublin AM while remaining an independent entity.  Susan encouraged our members to continue to consider Paul Harris Fellow contributions as well as to bring forward ideas for charitable giving either through the foundation or through grants available via Rotary International.
