Saturday, October 14, 2017 is the date. The Houston Community College – West Loop Campus, 5601 West Loop South, Houston, TX 77081 is the place.
 
The seminar will begin promptly at 8:30 AM, and will end no later than 12:15 PM. Doors open at 7:45 AM, complete with breakfast.
 
A mixture of large group and break-out sessions will provide Rotarians opportunities to expand their Rotary Foundation knowledge as well as share ideas about topics ranging from handling District Grants to improving Legacy Donor opportunities.
 
We will also be addressing Harvey relief efforts. This will include the “Big News” that District 5890 will be awarding additional District Grants. Normally this would not be possible as the Rotary Foundation has already acted on our District Grant application. However, upon our request the Rotary Foundation deviated from its standard procedures to help us address Harvey’s effects in our communities. The details will be announced at the seminar.
 
By the way, donations to the Rotary Foundation made at the seminar will generate additional Paul Harris recognition points. Those recognition points earned from the donations will be matched one to one. You do not know about Paul Harris recognition points? We will cover that subject during the Rotary 101 session.
 
Registration is $15. If you plan to pay by check at the door, choose the pay by mail option when you register. The link to register is https://portal.clubrunner.ca/50025/Event/district-5890-foundation-seminar.
