Serving with Purpose: A United Vision for Ruritan in 2026

2026 NATIONAL PRESIDENT DAVID THOMPSON

It is truly an honor to serve as your National President for 2026. Our recent Convention was filled with fellowship, gratitude, and a shared commitment to the future of Ruritan. I am deeply thankful for the mentors, family, and Ruritans who encouraged and supported me on this journey. Their

influence—and the spirit of service they modeled—continues to guide me today. My “why” begins with early experiences serving others through church youth programs, volunteer rescue work, coaching, and eventually Ruritan. Those experiences taught me the lasting impact of helping neighbors and building stronger communities. Service has shaped my life, and I hope each of you feels the same reward in your own Ruritan journey. This year, my primary focus is Project FOCUS. The fund played a critical role in helping communities affected by Hurricane Helene, and now we must rebuild those resources so we are ready when the next disaster strikes. I encourage every club, district, and member to find ways to support this important effort. I also ask each of you to embrace change. Over the past few years, Ruritan has taken important steps to strengthen our future. Those changes are working—we are growing clubs, adding members, and stabilizing our organization. By continuing our commitment to the Long-Term Plan and the “3+5 Keeps the Dream Alive” initiative, we will keep moving forward together. I am excited to work alongside a dedicated Board and grateful for the leadership that has brought us to this point. Ruritan succeeds when we work as one team, support one another, and stay united in our mission. Thank you for all you do for Ruritan and for your communities. I am always just a call, text, or email away. Together, we will continue to serve, grow, and make a difference.

What is a Ruritan Forever? “Ruritan Forever” is a n endowment program that replaces the payment of national dues by members who wish to make a long term investment in Ruritan. The “Ruritan Forever” plan allows a member in good standing to pay $800 and become a life-time participant of the National Organization. Ruritan National will invest these pre-payments in a special managed fund. Even after the life participant dies, funds will continue to generate income , thus offering a perpetual memorial to the organization on behalf of the deceased Ruritan. A “Ruritan Forever” endowment may be purchased by a member in good standing or may be purchased for a member in good standing. A Ruritan Forever endowment may be purchased to honor a non-member provided they are brought into a club as an Associate Member at the same time. In this case the Associate Member’s dues would be covered by the $800 endowment. The lifetime endowment may also be purchased in memory of an already deceased Ruritan, ensuring an ongoing contribution to the operation of Ruritan in his or her name. Dues for a living participant must be current through the previous quarter to participate. Ruritan National will administer these prepaid dues in a separate fund with the original amount remaining in perpetuity. Interest on the fund will provide the money paid to Ruritan National for dues. Upon payment of the fee, the Ruritan will receive a certificate, a lapel pin, and a permanent life participant card. For endowments purchased for a deceased member a special plaque will be provided for the club to present to the deceased member’s family. National dues increases will have no effect on participants enrolled in the plan, although the purchase price of $800 for new enrollees may be adjusted over the years as necessary. There will be no special assessments or charges made to Ruritan Forever participants. Please detach or photocopy this portion if you would like to participate in this endowment plan to secure the future of Ruritan, in your name or in the name of a fellow Ruritan. Your Name: Your Club Name: Your Address: Telephone: This application is for: (check one) Myself Current Member Deceased Ruritan Associate Member Name of Applicant (If not you): Applicant’s Club: Applicant’s Address: OPTION #1 Credit card number: Expiration Date: OPTION #2 Enclosed please find a check/money order for $800 CVV: OPTION #3 Enclosed please find the 1st $200 installment of the $800 Ruritan Forever fee.
