to:
Infra-Structure Construction: roads, bridges, water/waste, schools, hospitals, homes etc., probably over a 5 to 10 year period.
TRF (The Rotary Foundation) has a sustained, impressive reputatuion for building: schools, hospitals, water systems in villages and countries of need. Keep TRF in mind for your ongoing support of Haiti
Direct & Match your Donation
Until Feb 12, your Donations to TRF Canada will be matched.
The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) will make a matching contribution to the government’s Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund. Remember your donations to TRF Canada are tax deductible.

Dear Rotarian,
I am pleased to advise you, on behalf of the board of The Rotary Foundation (Canada) that through February 12th, Canadians may make a tax-deductible donation to The Rotary Foundation (Canada) designated to help with earthquake recovery projects in Haiti. These restricted contributions will be used for Rotary Foundation projects in Haiti.
The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) will make a matching contribution to the government’s Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund for all donations collected by charities through February 12th. CIDA will then accept grant proposals from charities and use this new fund to support projects, such as Rotary’s, that help meet the many critical needs of the Haitian people.
Contributions are now being accepted on TRF (Canada)’s website. While tax-receipts will be issued, no Paul Harris Fellow recognition will be provided. DDF (District Designated Funds) cannot be accepted due to government restrictions. Donations received after February 12th will be deposited into Rotary Foundation’s World Fund.
The easy way to contribute is on the secure donation page at www.TRFCanada.org.
Cheques may be sent to:
The Rotary Foundation (Canada) - Box B9322
P.O. Box 9100
Postal Station F
Toronto, ON M4Y 3A5
