On July 3, 1962, the Medford Rotary Foundation was incorporated as a non-profit organization.
In 1947 we established the Student Loan Committee. Their function was to provide loans to students going on to higher educations. We had a lot of trouble in collecting funds after they graduated. So in July 3, 1962 Medford Rotary Foundation was founded and we began providing scholarships to the area’s graduating seniors. No more loans.
