Getting Started with The Rotary Foundation
The Rotary Foundation helps Rotarians to
advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by
improving health, providing quality education, improving the environment, and alleviating poverty.
The Mission Statement of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International is to support the efforts of Rotary International in the fulfillment of the Object of Rotary, Rotary's mission, and the achievement of world understanding and peace through local, national, and international humanitarian, educational, and cultural programs. In other words, The Rotary Foundation is the charitable funding vehicle for much of the work of Rotary.
*The videos and presentations can be used as guidelines, however, to apply for a District or Global Grant you and your members should attend the training of the Rotary District 5930. Review the calendar to learn more about it.
Our Foundation is dedicated to causes — or areas of focus — that build international relationships, improve lives, and promote a more peaceful world. Which of these causes resonates with you? What are you passionate about?
The Foundation can help you turn your passion for a cause into action and lasting change. Rotarians are encouraged to lead efforts in these areas, and The Rotary Foundation is here to support those efforts with grants.
In fact, the very mission of our Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by improving people’s health, supporting education, improving the environment, and alleviating poverty.
