The Rotary Foundation has been improving lives since 1917.
 Learn about our work and help us celebrate 100 years 
of doing good in the world.
Rotary Foundation Trustee Chair Ray Klinginsmith 
asked district governors in training at the International Assembly
 to lead the celebration of the Foundation's centennial year, 2016-17.

"You are the primary contacts between the Foundation 
and our 34,000 Rotary clubs in the world.
 The success of the centennial celebration is largely in your hands," 
said Klinginsmith at a 19 January general session. 
"Catch the spirit and spread the word about the importance 
of celebrating our success."

Since the Foundation was established in 1917,
 it has spent more than $3 billion on programs
 and projects to improve the lives of millions worldwide,
 said Klinginsmith.


The centennial celebration officially kicks off in May
 at the Rotary Convention in Korea
 and culminates at the 2017 convention in Atlanta.

The Present 
The Present, 
A Beautiful Short Story

After a very successful festival circuit,
 running on over 180 film festivals
 and winning more than 50 awards, 
the creators of this magnificent short film
 decided that it’s finally time to share ‘The Present’
 with the rest of the world. 
’The Present’ is a thesis short from the Institute of Animation, 
Visual Effects and Digital Postproduction
 at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg 
in Ludwigsburg, Germany.
