Description
1) Objective
The Rotary Foundation helps fund humanitarian activities, from local service projects to global initiatives. The Foundation also leads the charge on worldwide Rotary campaigns such as eradicating polio and promoting peace. Rotarians and friends of Rotary support the Foundation’s work through voluntary contributions. Their main international program is called global grants and can fund activities in health, education, peace, water and sanitation, mother and child as well as environment. The total annual giving for global grants is around $55 million (app. 1000 grants). The majority is going to health.
Global grants can fund:
- Humanitarian projects
- Scholarships for graduate-level academic studies
- Vocational training teams, which are groups of professionals who travel abroad either to teach local professionals about their field or to learn more about it themselves
2) Eligibility
Eligible are Rotary Clubs that have qualified in order to receive grant funding from The Rotary Foundation.
3) Location
They fund projects worldwide.
4) Budget
Global grants have a minimum budget of $30,000 and a maximum World Fund award of $400,000.
5) Application
Eligible are Rotary Clubs that have qualified in order to receive grant funding from The Rotary Foundation. The qualification process helps ensure that the district or club understands the financial responsibilities, including stewardship, and is prepared to take them on. Qualification must be completed each year. To qualify clubs must read through the district qualification memorandum of understanding (MOU) on the grants application tool, answer a series of questions, and agree to the MOU and then conduct grant management seminars for clubs. A key feature of global grants is partnership, between the district or club where the activity is carried out and a district or club in another country. Both sponsors must be qualified before they can submit an application. Applications need to be submitted online. There are no deadlines.
