YOUR ROTARY LEGACY

Goals: Building Your Legacy & Education

You’ve devoted your life to helping others through Rotary.  We’re asking you to help tomorrows Rotarians to keep your legacy alive through a strong Foundation.

We must also educate today’s Rotarians to continue supporting the Foundation you helped to build.

We are building a $2.7 million bridge between the challenges of today and the hope of tomorrow.

 

Ways you can help!

  • Donate a gift or pledge of $10,000 or more.
  • Consider the ways you can build your gift.
  • Invite a committee member to speak with you club.

Ways to build your gift?

  • Cash in a single payment or spread over three annual payments
  • Your gift could be securities or appreciated assets
  • Bequest or Beneficiary designation.
  • Life income annuity
  • There are many more options to help you support The Rotary Foundation the way you wish.

In over thirty-five years as a Rotarian, I have watched Rotarians do amazing things.  Things many thought impossible.  Our Governors have set a high bar ($2.7 Million).  I have no doubt we will exceed expectations, as only Rotarians can.

If you have questions, need information or want any help contact Committee Chair Doug Cook – Collegeville Rotary dougcookins@gmail.com - 610-772-7226 or reach out to a member of the Ambassador Committee listed below.

Rotary District 7430 Youth Exchange Program Champions Global Peace with Peace Pole at Wyomissing Public Library

 

As part of the Rotary District 7430 Youth Exchange Program, the Wyomissing Public Library was selected to receive a Rotary Peace Pole, which was dedicated at the library, located at 9 Reading Boulevard in Wyomissing, in March 2026.
The idea for this initiative originated with Linda Kennedy, who serves as Chair of the Rotary District 7430 Youth Exchange program, during the Rotary International worldwide convention held in June 2025. At this convention, leaders of Youth Exchange programs were encouraged to weave peace initiatives into their long-term exchanges. The Peace Pole is designed to foster unity among people of various cultures, ethnicities, and backgrounds.
According to the Peace Pole website, “Peace Poles are recognized as the most prominent international symbol and monument dedicated to peace on earth. Peace Poles have been planted on every continent in over 200,000 communities by friends and supporters working in unison to uplift the consciousness of humankind. They serve as reminders to cultivate peace in thought, word, and action. 
Every Peace Pole has the same message, "May Peace Prevail on Earth," which was authored in 1955 by the late Masahisa Goi of Japan. The Peace Pole at the Wyomissing Public Library carries the message in English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Japanese and Norwegian. These languages represent the countries of the current Rotary Youth Exchange Students for academic year 2025-26 living in Rotary District 7430.
