What are District Grants?
District Grants are intended for small-scale, short-term activities that address humanitarian needs in your community. All Clubs in District 6420 are encouraged to apply for a District Grant. For the 2020-2021 Rotary year 33 of the 46 Clubs in District 6420 applied for a District Grant. That was a record number of Clubs but we would like to see even more Clubs become involved for 2021-2022.
How much money is available?
A maximum of $1000 will be available to each Club in District 6420 for the 2021-2022 Rotary year. Matching club funds are expected.
How does a Club get a District Grant?
The process is easy! Make sure that your President Elect (the person who will be President during 2021-2022) attends a District Grant Management Seminar during the 2020-2021 Rotary year and that your Club’s Grant Chair has attended the District Grant Management Seminar during the last three years. Then complete a short application that is due on May 15, 2021. The District Grant Management Seminar will cover all of the requirements and procedures for obtaining a District Grant.
When are the District Grant Management Seminars going to be held?
Saturday, January 23, 2021 from 9:00am-10:30am via Zoom.
Saturday, February 13, 2021 from 9:00am-10:30am via Zoom.
