For the 12th consecutive year, 

The Rotary Foundation has received the highest rating —

 four stars — from Charity Navigator,

 an independent evaluator of charities in the U.S.

The Foundation earned the recognition for

 demonstrating both strong financial health

 and commitment to accountability and transparency.

 Only one percent of the organizations Charity Navigator

 evaluates have received 12 consecutive 4-star evaluations.

"Attaining a 4-star rating verifies that 

The Rotary Foundation exceeds industry standards

 and outperforms most charities in your area of work",

 says Michael Thatcher, president and chief executive 

officer of Charity Navigator. 
"This exceptional designation sets the 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.

Dear Fellow Rotarians

World Thrombosis Day is October 13 - 1 in 4 people die
from causes related to thrombosis.
  It’s a leading cause of global death and disability. 
Thrombosis is the formation of potentially deadly blood clots
 in the artery or vein.
 Once formed, a clot can slow or block normal blood flow
 and even break loose and travel to an organ which
 could result in heart attack, stroke and venous thromboembolism
 - the top three cardiovascular killers.

To coincide with World Thrombosis Day,
 we are conducting a street appeal on FRIDAY 11^th OCTOBER 2019
  in Perth City and need volunteers for 2 ½ hour shifts as follows.
  Partners/friends & family welcome to accompany you!

Dear members of Rotary in Western Australia,

The Interact Club of Mount Lawley at Mount Lawley Senior High School

 recently celebrated its 10th year!

The first meeting of prospective members was held in December 2008

 with a group of year 9 students and the Interact Club was chartered in January 2009.

 The first year of operation was with 30 year 10 students.

 Over the next three years as students moved on in years the numbers

 were increased by new recruits from year 10, so by 2011 the club

 consisted of students from years 10 to 12. 

From then on as the year 12s left, new recruits form year 10 helped maintain member numbers.

 On average the membership each year consists of approximately 60 students.

Each year, Interact clubs complete at least two community service projects,

 one of which furthers international understanding and goodwill.

 Through these efforts, Interactors develop a network of friendships and learn the importance of:

- Developing leadership skills and personal integrity
- Demonstrating helpfulness and respect for others
- Understanding the value of individual responsibility and hard work
- Advancing international understanding and goodwill

Over the past 10 years the Interact Club has supported both international and local projects

. They have raised funds in many innovative ways including, car washes,

 cake stalls, chocolate sales, sausage sizzles

 and assisting other Rotary Clubs with their fundraising events.

Projects that have been supported include:

Polio Plus
Camp Quality
Make A Wish Foundation
Heartkids WA
Aboriginal War Graves Project
East Timor Student Scholarships
Materials for September 14 School in East Timor and
Wheelchairs for Kids

Over the past 10 Years the Interact Club has raised

 and distributed over $20,000 for their various projects.

The Interact Club of Mount  Lawley has been awarded the Presidential Citation

 seven times in the last 10 years acknowledging their commitment to the Club.
