說明：「兩種需求，兩種捐獻方式」是扶輪基金會全面性的募款訊息。所謂兩種需求是指支持扶輪基金會今日眾多計劃的需求，以及確保這些計劃明日能成功的需求。兩種方式是指捐獻年度計劃基金和永久計劃基金，來滿足這些需求。此一訊息涵蓋對於基金會的所有捐獻，從贊助會員與永久基金捐助者到有肖像懸掛在國際扶輪世界總部之基金捐獻者的阿克•柯藍夫名人堂的巨額捐獻者。

Description: Two Needs, Two Ways of Giving is TRF’s comprehensive fundraising message. The two needs are to financially support TRF’s wide range of programs today and to secure its programs for tomorrow. The two ways of meeting these needs, respectively, are giving to the Annual Programs Fund and the Permanent Fund. This message encompasses all forms of giving to TRF, from Rotary Foundation Sustaining Members and Benefactors to Major Donors, whose pictures hang in the Arch Klumph Gallery of Foundation Donors at RI World Headquarters.

如何為扶輪基金會募款

How to Raise Money for The Rotary Foundation

•推廣「兩種需求，兩種捐獻方式」的募款訊息。

•「每位扶輪社員，每年」行動鼓勵每一位扶輪社員透過擔任扶輪基金計劃的義工以及/或對年度計劃基金做出個人的財務捐獻來參與他們的扶輪基金。以身作則：要對年度計劃基金，做出個人財務承諾與捐獻每年100美元或以上，以成為一位扶輪基金贊助會員。

•要求「每位扶輪社員，每年」對年度計劃基金，捐獻100美元或更多。每一個扶輪社應有一位扶輪基金會聯絡人親自要求每一位扶輪社的社員做捐獻。

•著手達成2001年立法會議通過之平均每人捐獻100美元的目標。如果該地區已經平均每人捐獻100美元或以上，則要去考慮提高百分比。如果該地區低於平均每人捐獻100美元，則要去考慮如何達到此一水準的方法。確保所有扶輪社在訂定支持地區目標的年度計畫基金的目標。

•尋找巨額捐獻者具有挑戰性的捐獻以協助感動扶輪社或地區的扶輪社員去對年度計劃基金捐獻。

•鼓勵扶輪社員經常參訪國際扶輪網際網路之網址。

•透過他或她將或一次捐贈1000美元至永久基金讓扶輪基金會成為一位受惠者，以鼓勵每一位扶輪社員成為一位永久基金捐獻人。

•提供基金會如何改善全世界各地人們的生活的個人經驗。

•籌辦特別活動

—八公里賽跑/五公里健行

—基金會宴會

—書信宣傳

—拍賣會

•協助在貴地區成立一個演講人團

•企業員工對等捐獻

•考慮透過扶輪基金會直接捐獻（僅限美國與加拿大）每季、每月或每年循環捐獻。

•結合聯邦宣傳運動Federal Campaigns（僅限美國）或聯美之路the United Way（僅限美國與加拿大）

• Promote the Two Needs, Two Ways of Giving fundraising message.

• The Every Rotarian, Every Year initiative encourages every Rotarian to participate in their Rotary Foundation by volunteering for Foundation programs and/or contributing to the Foundation’s Annual Programs Fund. Lead by example: Make your personal financial commitment and contribute US$100 or more each year to the Annual Programs Fund to become a Rotary Foundation Sustaining Member.

• Ask for contributions of US$100 or more to the Annual Programs Fund from Every Rotarian, Every Year. Each club should have a Foundation contact who will personally ask each member of the club for a contribution.

• Work to achieve the 2001 Council on Legislation’s endorsement of the US$100 per capita goal. If the districts is already at $100 per capita or more, consider a percentage increase. If the district is less than $100 per capita, consider ways to reach that level. Ensure that all clubs set an Annual Programs Fund goal in support of the district goal.

• Seek Major Donor challenge gifts to help motivate Rotarians in the club or district to contribute to the Annual Programs Fund.

• Encourage Rotarians to visit RI’s Web site, www.rotary.org, often.

• Encourage every Rotarian to become a Benefactor by making The Rotary Foundation a beneficiary of his or her will or by contributing US$1,000 outright to the Permanent Fund.

• Provide personal stories of how TRF has improved lives around the world.

• Organize special events:

– 8K run/5K walk

– Foundation dinners

– Letter-writing campaigns

– Auctions

• Pursue corporate employee matching gifts.

• Consider voluntary monthly, quarterly, or annual  recurring contributions through TRF-Direct Donations (USA and Canada only).

• Partner with combined federal campaigns (USA only) or the United Way (USA and Canada).

為何支持扶輪基金會？

Why Support The Rotary Foundation?

「我們自己社區的問題已經夠多了，我不想支持國際活動。」

“With all of the problems we face here in our local communities, I don’t think that I should support international causes.”

雖然當地社區也有問題要處理，而且社會服務也是扶輪一直標榜的服務的理想的不可分的一部份，這都是事實，但是國際扶輪也致力於解決世界性的問題。無疑地，一個社區可以從不同文化之間的人民交流獲得很大的好處。四大服務之一的國際服務需要所有扶輪社員發展全球友誼，並進行各種計劃，以建立全球和平及瞭解。

While it is true that local communities have issues that should be addressed and that Community Service is an integral part of what Rotary stands for, Rotary International is also dedicated to solving problems worldwide. A community can greatly benefit from the exchanges of people from different cultures. International Service calls on all Rotarians to develop global friendships and undertake projects to build understanding and peace around the globe.

「如果捐獻基金會，我不知道我的捐獻是否會被善加使用。」

“If I contribute to the Foundation, I do not know that my contribution will be used wisely.”

無論是幫助波蘭的小孩子抵抗致命的疾病，協助成立識字計劃來幫忙印度婦女，或提供終生難得的機會給一位獎學金學生或團體研究交換團團員，我們保證你的捐獻將會改善貴社區或世界上另外一個人的生活。年度計劃基金捐獻在運用於基金會計劃之前，將先拿去投資3年。年度計劃基金投資的獲利將用於支付基金發展、一般行政管理費用及計劃的費用。

Whether it is helping a Polish child fight a deadly disease, assisting in creating a literacy program for Indian women, or providing the opportunity of a lifetime to a scholar or Group Study Exchange team member, you can be assured that your gift will touch the lives of people in your community or in another part of the world. Contributions to the Annual Programs Fund are invested for three years before they are spent on the Foundation’s programs. Earnings from Annual Programs Fund investments help pay for fund development, general administrative expenses, and program expenses.

「我們的扶輪社有自己的基金會，我支持它就好了。」

“We have our own club foundation that I support.”

許多扶輪社已有成立自己的基金會，以滿足當地社區的許多需求。雖然國際扶輪非常支持社區服務，但也強調國際服務的重要性。唯有在國際服務及當地社區服務計劃之間取得平衡才能真正反映扶輪服務的理想。

Many Rotary clubs have established their own private foundations that meet many of their local community’s needs. While Rotary International strongly supports community efforts, it also stresses the importance of service for international causes. A balance of support for both international and local community projects reflects the true ideals of Rotary service.

「我不覺得我的財務狀況允許現在捐獻。」

“I don’t feel like I can give financially right now.”

任何金額的捐獻都歡迎。扶輪社員可以在不危及自身的經濟穩定之情況下，以許多不同的方式做財務捐獻。有些扶輪社員以現金或增值的股票做一次捐獻，有的傾向選擇在遺囑或遺產規劃裡指定捐獻財產給基金會。有的雖然捐獻，但仍保留在世時繼續享有收入的權利。

扶輪社員也可以選擇透過扶輪基金會直接捐獻計劃(電匯和信用卡定期付款)來每月、每季或者每年的小額捐獻。扶輪社員可以選擇不同層次的捐獻；重要的是要記住每一筆捐獻都有助於支持扶輪基金會各項計劃。

Contributions in any amount are welcomed. There are many different ways that Rotarians can contribute financially without jeopardizing their economic stability. Some Rotarians give outright gifts of cash or appreciated stock, while others prefer to name The Rotary Foundation in their will or estate plan. Others make gifts that provide them an income during their lifetime. Rotarians may also choose to make smaller gifts monthly, quarterly, or annually through the TRF-Direct (electronic fund transfer and credit card recurring debiting) program. Rotarians have the capacity to give at various levels; the important thing to remember is that every contribution helps to support the Foundation’s programs.

「我去年已經有捐獻給扶輪基金會」

“I contributed to the Foundation last year.”

每一年都有數以千計需要幫助的人，因為扶輪基金會計劃缺乏資源而無法幫助他們。為了繼續對抗飢餓、疾病、無家可歸、文盲及其他嚴重的問題，我們需要繼續募集年度計劃基金捐獻來改善這些情況。扶輪基金會呼籲每位扶輪社員們每年都要對年度計劃基金捐獻，才能維持目前計劃的水準與使扶輪基金會計劃成長。

Every year there are thousands of needy people who do not benefit from TRF programs because of the lack of resources. To keep moving forward in the fight against hunger, disease, homelessness, illiteracy, and other serious problems, TRF depends on Rotarians’ continual contributions to the Annual Programs Fund. TRF calls on Every Rotarian  to make a contribution to the Annual Programs Fund Every Year to maintain the same level of support for existing programs and to enable TRF programs to grow.

「恐怕大部分的捐獻都會拿去支付營運、行政管理及募款的費用，而非用在各項計劃上。」

“I am afraid that too much of my contribution will go toward paying for operating, administrative, and fundraising costs instead of programs.”

扶輪基金會一直被錢雜誌Money及富比士Forbes雜誌名列低募款費用前50名慈善機構之一。藉著將年度計劃基金捐獻投資3年，扶輪基金會便能以獲利來支付計劃營運、行政管理及募款費用。

TRF is consistently ranked in the top 50 charities for low fundraising costs by Money magazine and Forbes. By investing Annual Programs Fund contributions for three years, TRF is able to use the earnings to help offset administrative and fundraising costs.

「我不想要用錢買保羅•哈理斯之友表彰」

“I don’t want to ‘buy’ my Paul Harris Fellow Recognition.”

許多扶輪社員覺得以自己的捐獻來換取保羅•哈理斯之友是用錢來「買」表彰。事實絕非如此。我們雖然鼓勵扶輪社及個人透過提名為保羅•哈理斯之友來表彰其他人，我們強調的是個人的支持。捐獻基金會是改善世界上另一個人的生活的一種特殊方式。扶輪基金會也提供其他許多獎項來表彰扶輪社員的善行。

Many Rotarians feel that receiving Paul Harris Fellow Recognition through one’s own contribution is a way of “buying” recognition. This is simply not the case. Although clubs and individuals are encouraged to recognize others by naming them as Paul Harris Fellows, the emphasis should be placed on the individual’s personal support. A gift to TRF is a special way of making a difference in the life of another person in the world. TRF also offers many other types of recognition of Rotarians’ good work.

「我不確定像基金會這樣龐大的官僚機構是否能有效且有效率地運用我的捐獻。」

“I’m not sure that the large bureaucratic Foundation will effectively and efficiently use my contribution.”

雖然扶輪基金會是一個大慈善機構，它的效率卻很高。一旦收到文件且經過處理以保證資助的計劃合乎品質要求，世界各地就有數百個計劃展開。由於基金會數以千計的扶輪社員及朋友的支持，每年大約友1,000個獎學金學生出國留學，進行約250個團體研究交換，頒發1,500多個配合獎助金，以及進行其他數十個計劃，以改善世界各地人民的命運和生活狀況。

世界上的扶輪社社員也擔任一種義務幹部，去幫助確保捐獻是明智地去使用並用於他們所打算目的方面。

Although TRF is a large charity, it is also quite efficient. After it collects and processes the paperwork to ensure selection of quality projects for funding, implementation begins on hundreds of projects around the world. Due to the financial support from thousands of Rotarians and friends of TRF, every year approximately 1,000 scholars study abroad, some 250 Group Study Exchanges take place, over 1,500 Matching Grants are awarded, and scores of other efforts are undertaken to improve the lives of people worldwide. Rotarians around the world also serve as a cadre of volunteers to help ensure that contributions are used wisely and for the purpose they were intended.

「我的捐獻無濟於事」

“My contribution will never make a difference.”

如果每一個扶輪社員都覺得他/她的捐獻無濟於事時，就不會有大使獎學金學生、團體研究交換參加者、配合獎助金、扶輪義工、或基金會其他計劃。全體扶輪社員對我們的世界做了很大的改變。我們感謝捐給扶輪基金會的每一筆，它使我們更進一步邁向世界瞭解及和平。

If every Rotarian felt that his/her contribution did not make a difference, there would be no Ambassadorial Scholars, no Group Study Exchange participants, no Matching Grants, no Rotary Volunteers, nor any other TRF programs. Collectively, Rotarians make a huge difference in our world. Every TRF contribution is appreciated and brings us one step closer to world understanding and peace.

「扶輪基金會年度報告顯示其資產已經超過5億4,000萬美元。我們存在銀行的資產已經這麼多，為何扶輪地區領導人繼續要求給予基金會更多的支持。」

“The Rotary Foundation Annual Report shows assets of over US$540 million. Why do Rotary district leaders continue to ask for more support for TRF when we have this level of assets invested in the bank?”

重要的是要瞭解到許多捐獻至永久基金的那些資產，僅僅只有利息收入的部份，才能夠使用於扶輪基金計劃。同樣的，儘管年度計劃基金使用於每一年的扶輪基金計劃，保管委員會會在使用於扶輪基金計劃之前，將那些捐獻投資三年。保管委員會保留了一筆營運準備基金，以確保基金會能在經濟不景氣、突發緊急狀況或因應必要的支出時，能保持穩定。保管委員會必須以相當保守的方式營運，因為他們係受託管理扶輪基金會經費。

It is important to understand that many of those assets are contributions to the Permanent Fund for which only a portion of the earnings can be spent on Foundation programs. Also, while contributions to the Annual Programs Fund are spent on Foundation programs each year, the Trustees invest those contributions for three years before they are spent on Foundation programs. The Trustees maintain an operating reserve fund to assure TRF’s stability in times of economic downturn, unexpected emergency, or necessary expense. The Trustees must operate in a moderately conservative fashion because of their fiduciary responsibility for managing TRF’s funds.
