Applying for aGlobal Grant
Again, there are 2 stages:
•Proposal – same form as for District Grant
•Global grants – uses an online application process accessed through Member Access on the RI website. Each club member named on the application will need to create an access account through the Member Access at
http://www.rotary.org/en/grants
BUT TALK TO US FIRST AND LET US HELP
Areas of focus•Peace and conflict prevention/resolution
•Disease prevention and treatment
•Water and sanitation
•Maternal and child health
•Basic education and literacy
•Economic and community development
But clubs must be qualified
•Foundation Seminar November 2012 and this seminar attendance out of the way
If your club had attendance at both these all that’s left is:
•Submit club MOU
What does District Foundation have to
do?• Work with you to get proposals that fit the
eligibility criteria
• Collate proposals
• Determine DDF required to support the proposals
• Determine which (if any) proposals we don’t have the funds to support
• Publish our shopping list
• Provide ongoing support
Oh yes, also we need the money
• Club annual giving is still the only source
• Recent years income has reduced year on year –
that would jeopardise everything if it continued
• By giving, clubs stay part of the Rotary family
• Be in it to win it!! The funds are there
