ROTARY FOUNDATION GLOBAL GRANTS

Application Deadline: June 30, 2026

LOCATION: Multiple Regions

Global grants support large international activities with sustainable, measurable outcomes in Rotary’s areas of focus. By working together to respond to real community needs, clubs and districts strengthen their global partnerships.

ELIGIBILITY:

Both the district or club in the country where the activity is carried out and the international partner district or club must first become qualified before applying for a global grant. Learn more about the qualification process and grant management. Your club and district Rotary Foundation chairs can help you plan how to use your District Designated Funds and learn how to qualify your club.

Submitting a successful grant application

Consult with local experts early in the planning process to build a strong project plan and global grant application. The district resource network (see below) can help.

To be approved, your application must clearly describe how your activity:

Is sustainable—includes plans for long-term success after the global grant funds have been spent

Includes measurable goals

Aligns with one of Rotary’s areas of focus

Responds to real community needs—any club or district that applies for a global grant to support a humanitarian project or a vocational training team must conduct a community assessment first and design the project based on what they learn through that assessment. Be sure to include the results of your community assessment in your application.

Actively involves Rotary and community members

Includes opportunities to build people’s knowledge and skills

Meets the eligibility requirements in the grants terms and conditions

You will submit the application in Rotary’s Grant Center. To prepare, you can download this application template. Applications are accepted throughout the year and are reviewed as they’re received. If you’re working with a cooperating organization, you’ll need to submit additional documentation with your application.

Note: Sponsoring clubs and districts must submit their applications by June 30 to the Rotary Foundation for scholars who will begin studies in August, September, or October.

BENEFIT:

Global grants have a minimum budget of $30,000 and a maximum World Fund award of $400,000. Grant sponsors can use a combination of District Designated Funds (DDF), cash, and/or directed gift and endowed fund program award spendable amounts to fund a global grant. The Foundation will provide an 80 percent World Fund match for all DDF contributions. There is no minimum World Fund match. You can use the global grant calculator to figure your grant financing automatically.
