Rotary funding comes in two speeds. District Grants are small, local and fast; they support short-term projects that answer an urgent community need. Global Grants are large, international and rigorous; they fund sustainable projects aligned with the 7 Areas of Focus. This chapter walks both paths end to end, with the rules that keep the money honest.
Rules per the District Fund & Grant Criterion Document and the directory's Global Grant guide. Amounts, matching percentages and deadlines that change every year (set by the District Governor) are noted as such. Check the current directory before applying.
Five sections: the two grant types, the financial rules, the application, and the reporting that closes the loop.
Rotary training videos on running District Grants and applying for Global Grants. Press play inside the card.
Grants fund the projects. The twinships and the Areas of Focus chapters tell you what to build and with whom.
Twinships and MOUs are how clubs in Zone 7 scale up. The next chapter shows the whole relationship.
