I wanted to find a way to help my local community. And I wanted to find others interested in the same thing: helping the community as a team in serving others.

The 50/50 Campaign is an exciting initiative that equally supports the San Francisco Rotary Foundation and The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International. Your donation to the 50/50 Campaign has a lasting impact on life-changing projects in San Francisco and around the world.Giving Example: If you give $1,000, then $500 supports the San Francisco Rotary Foundation and $500 supports The Rotary Foundation.
This joint campaign harnesses our club’s unbeatable “can-do” spirit to raise funds to help neighbors near and far. Your donation supports:
- Club projects that are near and dear to our members, including the annual Bike Build, World Wide Rotary Day, and our work with the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank. New members often initiate new projects that provide new ways to serve. Our Club's areas of focus include Youth Leadership, Community Service, International Service, and Vocational Service.
- The incredible work done globally by The Rotary Foundation, including Polio eradication, providing clean water and sanitation, and supporting the environment.
I support Rotary because it’s a responsible way to both give back to my local community and to help others around the world. I’m confident my money is spent judiciously and in a manner that is most appropriate for the work to be done.
