Jim Dunny receives Major Donor Award
 
l to r: Jeanne MacLaren, Jim Dunny, and DG Scott Carr
At the Jan 9 meeting of RB Sunrise Rotary Club,  Jim Dunny was awarded the Rotary Foundation's Major Donor award by District Governor Scott Carr and our Rotary Foundation chairperson, Jeanne MacLaren. In addition to a recognition pin, the award also included an acrylic paperweight etched with doves of peace. 
 
Jim said that donating to the Rotary Foundation was an easy decision for him because he knows that the money supports the important projects he values in a very efficient way. Rotary projects are administered by volunteers from local Rotary clubs and that allows more money to go to the actual goal of the project.  Jim also said that by donating through Rotary Direct he had to only make a decision once to contribute and that decision has made it possible to have and ongoing regular donation to the Rotary Foundation.
