FOUNDATION TRUSTEE CHAIR'S JUNE MESSAGE ________________________________________________________ THROUGH THE FOUNDATION, ROTARY’S REACH GROWS June 2010 In Rotary, we are guided by the three simple words of our motto Service Above Self. That motto forms an important part of our identity as Rotarians. It reminds us why we are here, why our every action matters, and why we take the time and the initiative to help others wherever and however we can. Our Rotary Foundation has its own motto: Doing Good in the World. Doing Good in the World is more than a slogan. It is our goal, our mission, and our reminder. It expresses in the clearest terms why we have a Foundation, and it challenges us to reach as far as we can to do the most good possible with everything we have. Our Foundation exists to support the good that we can do through Rotary. It expands our reach, increases our strength, and makes our service more powerful and more effective. Because of our Foundation we can, very simply, do more of our Rotary work. In May, I marked a personal milestone: 50 years as a Rotarian. In that time, I have seen so much achieved through Rotary, and seen very clearly how much of Rotary’s ability to do good is drawn from our Foundation. Through our Foundation, every one of us has an opportunity to be a part of all the good that Rotary does. This month marks the end of my service as trustee chair of our Rotary Foundation. I am grateful for the opportunity to know so many of you, and I thank you all for your support and encouragement. Please join me in welcoming our incoming trustee chair, Past RI President Carl-Wilhelm Stenhammar, and in wishing him great success. Glenn E. Estess Sr. Foundation Trustee Chair |
