Long-term Recovery Relief for Chile

The Rotary Foundation  (TRF) Chairman Estess has asked Rotary International Director and Treasurer, Michael Colasurdo, to advise all Rotarians in Zone 32 of the action taken in concurrence with President Kenny in the aftermath of the earthquake in Chile.

The Rotary Foundation is establishing an account to receive contributions from Rotarians and the general public for longer-term disaster recovery efforts in Chile.  Contributions to this account will not receive PHF recognition credit.  Funds contributed to this account will be utilized in Rotary Foundation projects to address infrastructure needs in Chile.  Districts may donate District Designated Funds (DDF) to this account.

Rotarians wanting to contribute to this account should direct their contributions through the normal means by which they make other contributions.

Information regarding the account will be posted on the RI website as soon as possible.
