Foundation History
At the 1917 convention, outgoing
Rotary President Arch Klumph
proposed setting up an endowment
“for the purpose of doing good in the
world.“ That one idea, and an initial
contribution of $26.50, set in motion
a powerful force that has transformed
millions of lives around the globe.
