LEARN ABOUT OUR CLUB’S EFFORTS

Our Foundation chairs work tirelessly with club members to promote annual giving to the RI Foundation’s various programs and to the Georgia Rotary Student Program Foundation. Half of all funds raised by the club for the TRF return to the club three years later to be used to fund projects within our community. The remaining dollars are used by the RI foundation to support its many mission in the pursuit of peace, world understand and improvement in the quality of lives around the globe.Rotary Club of Thomasville partners with Rotary Clubs across the globe to fund international projects through Global Grants which improve the lives of people whom we have never met who find themselves far less fortunate than we are. Most recently our projects have impacted the elderly in India and orphans in Serbia.Each year Rotary Club of Thomasville requests funds through the District Grant process to fund local projects which primarily focus on the education of young children in Thomasville with the ultimate goal of improving the local high school graduation rate. The club also supports literacy in Thomasville through the Southwest Georgia Literacy Grant when available. 

100% PARTICIPATION + GIVING GOAL MET

District Governor Andre’ Marria honored Past President Danny Braddy during her official visit last month for reaching our goal and continuing our 100% Participation annual giving for another year.  Great job Danny and club!


OUR CURRENT ANNUAL GIVING STATUS

Our goal this year is to give $30,000 before June 2024.  Starting December, our club’s actual giving year to date sits around $8,000.  Want to know how you can contribute?  Contact Rotarians Julie Carter and/or Fran Milberg.
