For a century the mission of The Rotary Foundation has enabled its members to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.

TRF is a not-for-profit corporation supported solely by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation who share its vision of a better world. It is a cornerstone of Rotary International.

The Rotary Foundation has received the highest possible score from Charity Navigator, an independent evaluator of charities in the U.S. citing excellence for both financial health and accountability, and transparency.

The ratings reflect how efficiently the Foundation uses donations, how well it has sustained programs and services, and its level of commitment to good governance and openness.
