ROTARY LUNCHEON: Celebrating Our Beneficiaries

Much of the Rotary year is devoted to organizing projects, funding them, and finding volunteers. Dan Joraanstad, President of the San Francisco Rotary Foundation, will serve as Master of Ceremonies and lead today's Program. The Program will showcase the beneficiaries for whom we work so hard. You will hear from all the service areas; see photos and videos from our projects; and learn the why and what we do. 

By the end of June 2022, our plan is to have spent about $192,000 in grants from the Foundation and District Designated Funds. Learn more about our programs and the way we help transform lives through our gifts of time, resources, and energy. At the end of the presentation, you will have an opportunity to sign up for a program or two. Where would you like to focus your energy in the next year?  

Come to celebrate all the good work that we do. If you are attending in person, enjoy some champagne throughout the meeting, compliments of the Board members of the San Francisco Rotary Foundation. Everyone will also hear an estimate of the results of this year’s 50-50 campaign. Whether you are deeply involved or would like to learn more, this Program is for you. 

A three-course lunch will be served. If you require a vegetarian, gluten free, or vegan lunch, please email President Mary.

For Club members and visitors, there is a $45 charge for in-person attendance (which covers the cost of your lunch). NOTE: If you present a prepaid Hotel Nikko luncheon ticket at the door, there is no other charge. For those who wish to participate via Zoom, there is a $10 fee to attend.

For in-person attendees: Please note that once President Mary provides the headcount to the Hotel Nikko on the Friday before our Tuesday meeting, we will be billed for that count regardless of whether you show or not. Therefore, it is important to let her know if you are unable to attend after registering, but no later than Sunday night. If you are a no-show without notifying her ahead of time, the Club will be billed the cost of the meal and will have to pass the cost down to you. We hope to not have to do this.

Parking: If you are driving to the Hotel Nikko for this meeting, please leave your car with the Hotel Nikko valet. Pick up a validation sticker available at our check-in table. The discounted parking is $17.50 for three hours.

Proof of Vaccination Required

To maximize the health and safety of Rotarians, guests, speakers, and the staff at the Hotel Nikko (where we meet), all in-person attendees must provide proof of vaccination. Masks are optional during the event. We recommend that fully vaccinated individuals wear masks when the risk may be high.
