What is The Centurion Club?

The Centurion Club was introduced in District 9940 by Immediate Past District Governor Judy Bain early in 2003 as a means by which individual Rotarians and others could donate a minimum of $100.00 to The Rotary Foundation, AND obtain tax relief as a donation to a charitable trust (up to the maximum statutory limit of $1,890.00 for all donations qualifying for tax rebates). There is no maximum level of donation to The Centurion Club.

How to Join

It is simple and easy. Just fill in a form, obtained by downloading from the District website, enclose a cheque or request a "direct debit" mandate form, and post it off to Bob Moffat, the District Chair of Rotary Foundation Promotion and Giving. His address is shown on the form. To obtain the form, click here and download it in PDF format. When complete, print two copies, and send one to Chris Robertson, retaining the other copy for your files.

Chris will route the money received from you through Rotary Club Charitable Trust (NZ) so that you, the donor can derive the tax benefit, and you will receive in due course a receipt that can be used to support your claim for a tax rebate.

Recognition

Public recognition of a contribution to The Centurion Club is by presentation of a certificate and pin at a club meeting, presented by either the District Governor or the Assistant Governor. This is encouraged, as a means of promoting the scheme.

However, it is recognised that some Rotarians wish to have their contributions remain confidential, and such confidentiality will be respected, if requested.
