Rotary Club of South Hilo accepts applications for the grants

  • South Hilo's Rotary club foundation has decided to make an award of $20,000 to non-profit organizations who have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.  The attached RFP will fund requests of up to $5,000 but our priority is to respond to as many requests at this time where funding is desperately needed.
