Vision, Goal & Strategic Plan

ROTARY FOUNDATION

Goal: To educate club members about the Foundation as well as encourage club members to participate in Foundation grants and activities and support the Foundation financially.

Specific objectives
1. Grow participation in Every Rotarian Every Year program of Rotary International towards 100%. 
2. Grow participation in the Paul Harris Society by 1 member. 
3. Continued active support and participation with the RI programs like Polio.
Action steps
-  educate club members about the Foundation; 
-  encourage club members to participate in Foundation grants and activities and support the 
    Foundation financially;
-  communicate to club members the Foundation goals set by the district and Trustees of The    
    Rotary Foundation
RISK ANALYSIS
To be future-proofed and survive as a vibrant Club, the Rotary Club of Ramna needs to be assured that it is relevant to:
o   its community of interest – with regards to fund-raising efforts;
o   the community it serves – with regards to the local and District/Cluster projects and services 
      it support; and 
o   its existing and prospective members – with regards to opportunities for fellowship and Service    
      Above Self.
Failure to operate efficiently and effectively risks the Club to becoming less relevant to its community of interest and to the community it serves, as well as becoming less attractive to members seeking active and meaningful engagement. To be effective and efficient, RC Ramna must be run on sound business principles including:
o   good governance, including a disaggregation of personnel involved in funds sourced and  
      funds spent;
o   a tight Board, with significant development of day to day decision making, to help separate    
      governance from management;
o   involvement of all members in significant decisions;
o   succession planning in key areas of operation; and
o   transparency of decision making criteria.

RIORITIES AND REVIEW
Each year, during the 3 year period of the Strategic Plan, the new Board will determine the priorities for that year through an annual club assembly, consistent with the strategic goals, objectives, and activities identified in this plan. This Strategic Plan is a living document and will be reviewed annually by the Board. The incoming President will be:
       Ø  totally conversant with the contents of this plan;
       Ø  identify areas where there is a need to fine tune or update; and
       Ø  to bring these to the Board and ultimately to the Club Membership for adoption.
