Future Vision

Global Grants


Objective

Understand The Rotary Foundation’s new global

grant-making model.


Two Grant Types

• District grants are block grants made to districts to support smaller projects locally and internationally.

• Global grants support larger projects with sustainable, high-impact outcomes in one of the six areas of focus.


Global Grants support large international activities

with sustainable high-impact outcomes in one or more of the six areas of focus and have a long-term impact. Clubs and

districts can either create their own activities or sponsor packaged global grants
