WHAT IS SHARE?
The SHARE system is how The Rotary Foundation distributes funds to districts. 
 
When you contribute to Annual Fund, the first 5% is deducted for operational costs. The remainder of the contribution is divided between the World Fund and District Designated Funds (DDF). The Trustees of the Rotary Foundation allocate money from the World Fund, and your district allocates DDF to the programs that people in your area want to support.
 
The name defines what the system does because contributions are shared throughout the world.
 
You can help our district and support meaningful projects by giving to the Annual Fund!
