The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage and foster:

FIRST: The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for service;

SECOND: High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportunity to serve society;

THIRD: The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian’s personal, business, and community life;

FOURTH: The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service.

Foundation Receives Highest Rating From

Charity NavigatorFor the 10th consecutive year, The Rotary Foundation has received the highest rating — four stars — from Charity Navigator, an independent evaluator of charities in the U.S.

In the most recent rat ings, the Foundation earned the maximum of 100 points for demonstrating both strong financial health and commitment to accountability and transparency.

In a letter to the Foundation, Charity Navigator notes that "only 1 percent of the charities we evaluate have re-ceived at least 10 consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that The Rotary Foundation outperforms other chari-ties in America. This exceptional des-ignation from Charity Navigator sets The Rotary Foundation apart from its peers and demonstrates to the public its trustworthiness."

The rating reflects Charity Navigator's assessment of how the Foundation uses donations, sustains its programs and services, and practices good governance and openness.

our MissionThe Rotary Club of Point West Sacramento is a vibrant community service organization promoting service to those in need, good-will, peace, and fellowship

our VisionBe a major contributor to children’s charities and support other local and global charitable opportunities and to be recognized for such

our core ValuesService, Fellowship, Respect, Diversity, Integrity and Leadership

our branDGreat people doing extraordinary things and having fun while doing it!

our goals1. Develop and maintain a strong pub-

lic relations/outreach campaign that will effectively drive membership and support fundraising efforts.

2. Increase overall membership by a net of 9 new members by the end of the 2019/2020 Rotary year by fo-cusing in three areas: y o u n g e r members (20-40), diverse popula-tions, women.

3. Increase the Permanent Fund of the Point West Rotary Club Foundation to $1.5 million by the end of the 2019/2020 Rotary year.

4. Maintain a strong presence and participation in District and Rotary International events and programs.

In the early 1930s Herbert J. Taylor set out to save the Club Aluminum Products distribution company from bankruptcy. He believed himself to be the only person in the company with 250 employees who had hope. His recovery plan started with changing the ethical climate of the company. He explained:

The first job was to set policies for the company that would reflect the high ethics and morals God would want in any business. If the people who worked for Club Aluminum were to think right, I knew they would do right. What we needed was a simple, easily remembered guide to right conduct - a sort of ethical yardstick- which all of us in the company could memorize and apply to what we thought, said and did.

I searched through many books for the answer to our need, but the right phrases eluded me, so I did what I often do when I have a problem I can’t answer myself: I turn to the One who has all the answers. I leaned over my desk, rested my head in my hands and prayed. After a few moments, I looked up and reached for a white paper card. Then I wrote down the twenty-four words that had come to me.

I called it "The Four-Way Test" of the things we think, say or do.

Adoption Of The Test By Rotary

In the 1940s, when Taylor was an international director of Rotary, he offered the Four-Way Test to the organization, and it was adopted by Rotary for its internal and promotional use. Never changed, the twenty four word test remains today a central part of the permanent Rotary structure throughout the world, and is held as the standard by which all behavior should be measured.

The test has been promoted around the world and is used in myriad forms to encourage personal and business ethical practices. Taylor gave Rotary International the right to use the test in the 1940s and the copyright in 1954.

roTary helps DisasTer viCTimsSevere storms, an earthquake, and hur-ricanes are wreaking havoc across the globe from the United States and Mexico to South Asia and Africa. The Rotary Foundation and Rotary clubs in affected areas are helping bring emergency aid to battered communities.

The Rotary Foundation is collecting emergency relief funds to help victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Hurricane Harvey made landfall in southeast Texas on 25 August.

Severe rainfall caused historic flood-ing along the Texas coast, including in Houston, the fourth largest city by pop-ulation in the United States. About 6.8 million people have been affected by the hurricane.

Meanwhile, Hurricane Irma is in the Caribbean and headed for Florida and the Atlantic coast of the United States. Already, the storm has directly affected 1.2 million people and millions more are in its path.

“The power of Rotary is in the Foundation’s ability to pull help from around the world while local clubs provide immediate relief in their own communi-ties,” says Don Mebus of the Rotary Club of Arlington, Texas.

Rotary districts along the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana are collecting emer-gency relief funds and providing immedi-ate aid to flood victims.

“We know that a disaster of this magni-tude will require our financial assistance for months into the future,” says District 5930 Governor Betty Ramirez-Lara. “Our disaster relief committee will provide support where we believe it can best be used.”

ShelterBox, an independent charity and Rotary’s project partner, is also provid-ing support to families displaced by the storms. In Texas, hundreds of light privacy tents were deployed to evacuation centers for families to use temporarily.

ShelterBox Response Teams are in Nepal, Bangladesh, and elsewhere to assess the damage there and determine how best to help those most vulnerable.
