I'm trying to tell our sad experience with this organization everywhere I can…read more My sons studied many years in a school in Sao Paulo, Brazil that belongs to the Sao Paulo Rotarian foundation. 11 years ago, I got divorced and stopped paying the tuition for 5 months. Now, 11 years later, after having my bank account blocked, not having been informed about this law suit till it was already ended, so I couldn't even defend myself, I have a debt of almost US$15,000. I deliver food for a living, cannot pay this amount, I live with my 2 sons in Colorado, and was caught with this huge bill, with this amount I could buy a condo or a house in some regions in Brazil. I sent an email to the president of Rotary in the US, president of Rotary in Brazil asking for help. Never got an answer from any of them, I received an email from a Rotary supervisor in Brazil saying that Sao Paulo Rotarian Foundation has financial and administrative autonomy to make any decisions and they couldn't interfere. That was it. I sent several other emails asking for help, no response whatsoever! None! This law suit was in the hands of a very expensive law firm in Sao Paulo. They played cruelly with me and my family during this process, offered a discount, cancelled the discount, then returned with the discount, demanded the bill to be paid with a credit card. If I didn't pay the bill, the next step would be to take ownership of any properties under my name in Brazil. We do have a condo in Brazil, where I and my family used to live. We rent an apartment here in Colorado. Now I read to Rotary's mission, "provide service to others, goodwill"!!!!! This is not true!! This is a group of arrogant and greedy people, that make a lot of money, no mercy or sympathy for any family or person in need, I can imagine how many families in the same situation as me have their lives destroyed in law suits like this! This organization deserves no respect!!!!!
