At our September 28th meeting, Foundation Chair Leslie Olson delivered an inspiring presentation reminding us of the profound local and global reach powered by the Rotary Foundation. As Leslie shared, our foundation remains an unstoppable force in making the world a better place—translating member generosity into direct, tangible community change.
Through the foundation’s stewardship, our club funds vital organizations and initiatives that touch countless lives across Greater Oconomowoc and beyond. Beneficiaries include the Oconomowoc Historical Society, PolioPlus, OHS DECA, Silver Streak, Badger Boys & Girls State, Kids Fest, Lake Area Free Clinic, Christmas Clearinghouse, Blessings in a Backpack, and World Affairs Seminars. Among our proudest endeavors are the life-changing educational opportunities awarded through the Lyle Neeb Perseverance Scholarship Fund.
“Be part of the story. Every contribution matters.”
— Leslie Olson, Foundation Chair
Looking to our current campaign, the club has established an end goal of $412,000 to fully fund student scholarships this year. With $100,000 already committed, our club is well on its way—and every gift of every size helps us bridge the gap to empower future graduates.
