Rotary Club of the Weald of Kent Trust Fund Trustees Report l. The Fund usually has a very broad range of beneficiaries both by geography and by size- 2023-4 was no exception. 2. The main fundraising activity was again the annual North Downs, Walk in aid of Cancer Research UK. a. The amount raised by the 2023 walk including Gift-Aid, totalled £15,065.16. b. The Fund received sponsorship of £3,000 for the walk from The Family Funeral Service, with the result that the Fund was able to donate the whole £15,065.16 to Cancer Research UK. c. At 30 June 2024 the Fund held an amount of £6,346.11 earmarked as "future walk expenses reserve" to enable the Trust to continue to operate the walk on the same basis for 2 years should our current sponsor withdraw. Hopefully this will not be the case but, in such event, the Trust would have 2 years to find a replacement sponsor or sponsors. 3. Other national charities to receive "significant" grants were the Spinal Injuries Association (£553.75 raised at 2 specific Rotary Club Dinners) and the Royal British Legion Industries (£431.25)
- Grants made to fund overseas causes totalled £2,218.75 and included: a. £1,312.5 to alleviate the suffering following the Turkish/Syrian earthquake. These funds were raised at a one-off dinner in a local restaurant. b. £262.5 to Christian Aid, and £262.5 to the Leprosy Mission, both donations arising from the proceeds of a monthly draw held by the Rotary Club to help the Trust Fund to finance diverse charities. 5, Local charities supported by the Fund included the KSS air Ambulance Charity (£400 to help provide a new air ambulance) and Heart of Kent (£450 to provide refrigeration facilities for their food pantry).
- Finally, in order to support Rotary International's own charity the Rotary Club (sponsors of the Trust Fund) has recently adopted a policy of paying IO% of all eligible* funds raised during the year to Rotary Foundation. Accordingly, and, augmented by personal contributions, a grant of £255 was made to Foundation. Funds not raised for a specific purpose
