Greg Wynn put his Foundation hat on and gave a presentation on our Charity, The Rotary Foundation. He explained how the monies that are collected are used and that 3 years after we have contributed, 1/2 comes back to the District (which allows us to get grants which support things like our holiday baskets)  The Annual Fund funds everything - grants, scholarships, global grants, youth exchange,  Greg discussed how our club awards Paul Harris Fellows and the fact that the Paul Harris Society is $1000 per year and there are various levels of Major Donors.  One of the past projects that VLR did was a water project in Tanzania.
