The current health pandemic has changed the way we do things.
The Rotary District 7150 Foundation has modified certain District Grant procedures to ease the difficulties some of us may encounter and encourage participation in District and/or Global Grants.
During these extenuating circumstances for the 2020-2021 Rotary year...
1) District and Global Grants addressing only COVID-19 emergency relief are allowed to conduct financial transactions prior to their District Grants' approval. Save your receipts, invoices, cancelled checks, etc. for your Final Report 2021!!.
2) The average $50 per capita Annual Fund requirement has been waived.
THE ROTARY FOUNDATION IS ALL ABOUT:
~ supporting Rotarians efforts to change lives and serve communities.
~ transforming your gifts into service projects that change lives both close to home and around the world.
The Rotary Foundation is how we get things done.

Under the provisions of the Rotary Foundation's program, Rotary Clubs desiring to participate in the grant program must be qualified/certified. Part of that qualification process is attendance at a Rotary Grant Management Seminar (GMS).
NEW: To qualify to participate in District Grant applications each year, minimum one member from each Club must attend Grants Management Seminar (GMS). Due to the current health crisis where we are advised to maintain social distancing, GMS is conducted via video-conference.
ABOUT THE ROTARY FOUNDATION (TRF) DISTRICT GRANTS
What are District Grants?
District Grants fund small-scale, short-term activities that address needs in your community and communities abroad. Each District chooses which activities it will fund with these grants.
District Grant community service projects are for only one year. This means Rotary Clubs must get qualified each year.
