Commonality:
Rotary International has a charitable foundation - The
Rotary Foundation; most financial support comes from its parent organization's customers.
Whole Foods Market has a charitable foundation - Whole
Planet Foundation; most financial support comes from its parent organization's customers.
Starbucks has a charitable foundation - Starbucks
Foundation; most financial support comes from its parent organization's customers.
Difference:
Whole Foods and Starbucks are customer-centered organizations
that, through their charitable foundations, perform humanitarian services
throughout the world. Whole Foods' and
Starbucks' top priority is satisfying the wants and needs of their support
base, customers.
Rotary International does not know if it is a service-centered
or member-centered organization that, through its charitable foundation,
performs humanitarian services throughout the world. Rotary International's top priority is not
satisfying the wants and needs of its support base, customers - present and future Rotarians.
