Timo Resch is the President and CEO of Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), where he oversees business in the United States, Canada and Porsche Digital, Inc., the manufacturer’s digital subsidiary in the U.S.


Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, PCNA is the exclusive importer of the Porsche 911; 718 Boxster and Cayman; Macan and Cayenne; Panamera; and Taycan model lines.

Message from the President: 10.30.25

As we heard Robert Hall share with us at Monday’s meeting, Polio remains endemic in only two countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan. But the fight isn’t over. This highly infectious disease can cause paralysis, lifelong disability, or death, mostly in young children. With no cure, vaccination is the only defense. Global eradication is vital to prevent resurgence, protect future generations, and mark one of humanity’s greatest public health achievements.

Rotary International is committed to raising $50 million per year over the next three years, with every dollar to be matched with two additional dollars from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. This expanded agreement translates into a total of $450 million to support the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. That’s a 3:1 match for every donation made to Polio Plus!

The PolioPlus Society is a program to promote individual giving to PolioPlus. Members of the Society agree to give at least $100 annually toward polio eradication until polio is stamped out worldwide. And who knew, donations can also be made in your pet’s name!

The first 5,000 PolioPlus Society members get a 6:1 match which includes a 1:1 match from a generous Rotarian in addition to the 3:1 match from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which the latter applies to all donations.

We invite members to donate to PolioPlus by scanning the QR code and selecting an amount that is right for you.
