Raise for Rotary, The Rotary Foundation’s online peer-to-peer fundraising tool, now accepts nine more currencies: Brazilian real, British pound sterling, Danish krone, the euro, Japanese yen, Norwegian krone, South African rand, Swedish krona, and Swiss franc. The platform, available worldwide in English, also accepts U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, and Australian dollars. We plan to add more currencies and language options over time.

Our members, donors, and participants use Raise for Rotary to support the Foundation by creating fundraisers for birthdays, anniversaries, athletic challenges, and events like World Polio Day. It’s mobile-friendly, which makes it easy to post fundraisers and updates on social media to expand support for your favorite Rotary cause.

Over the past three years, Raise for Rotary has made an impact with more than 2,000 custom fundraisers, which have generated more than US$1.5 million for Foundation funds, including the World Fund, Polio Fund, Disaster Response Fund, and Rotary’s areas of focus.
