PERMANENT FUND

The Permanent Fund:  The Rotary Foundation's endowment fund

We invite you to give a gift that will go beyond your lifetime: a donation to The Rotary Foundation's endowment, the Permanent Fund.  This fund enables individuals to combine their gifts into a significant force to address the world's greatest needs for generations to come.

The initial target of US $200 millon for the Permanent fund was met in 2005, six years ahead of schedule.  The next target is $1 billion by 2025.

In a Rotary year, about $8millon from the Permanent Fund is made available to support Foundation programs.
