With YOUR help, we can bring clean, filtered water to 9,000 people in Peru!! Every dollar donated has the ability to grow to $3.50 through the Rotary Matching Program, so YOUR DOLLAR COUNTS! Help us change lives today!
Today, 6,000 children die every day due to water borne diseases. The Rotary Club of Lakewood Ranch, Florida intends to lessen this problem by supplying products and services which will supply clean drinking water in Peru. With clean drinking water, children will have the opportunity to live healthier and more productive lives.
We will partner with Water Missions International who will help to install the filter and make sure the system meets sustainable standards. The Host Rotary Club will also help to assist them as needed.
The project will be done as a Rotary Global Grant so every $1.00 donated has the opportunity to grow to $3.50 through the Rotary Matching Program.
So how does this work?
If a Rotarian club donates $1.00 the District has the opportunity to match the club's donation, so it can turn into $2.00. The Rotary Foundation then matches the District at 100% and matches the club at 50%, which results in the Foundation donating $1.50, therefore making YOUR $1 TURN INTO $3.50!
Enough math for you?! Me too. Find out more about the Rotary Matching Program by clicking here!
If a Rotarian makes a donation of $50.00 or more, the donation will be considered a direct donation to the Grant so the Rotarian will receive Paul Harris Fellow credit. All donations will be tax deductible and everyone will receive a receipt.
