A most generous anonymous benefactor has pledged a significant four figure donation to the Rotary Foundation Annual Fund on D1090's behalf if we can achieve a representative from each of our clubs! An additional sum is pledged if we can send a representative from each of our 'Young Rotary' clubs!!! This will mean we can achieve so much more with our Global Grant projects. 

For more information on this, please contact District Governor David Pope or Foundation Chairman Karen Eveleigh

World Peace is desperately needed in these troubled times and this exciting conference is the ideal opportunity to discover more about how we can all make a real difference through our Rotary Clubs
