Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you affiliated with other Rotary Clubs like Rothesay Kings?
No, there are several Rotary Clubs in the province and district which all run independently under the Rotary International mandate 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.
On occasion some of the clubs in the past have joined together to support a program or grant but we are not affiliated.
When are your letter of interest deadlines?
Deadlines are posted on our How to Apply page.
Do you fund capital expenditures?
Generally, we do not fund capital expenditures. We would rather our grant funds go directly to programs which benefit children, at-risk youth and senior citizens.
Do you provide grants for information technology?
We do not generally fund information technology.
Do you monitor the use of your grants?
We will now require each grant recipient to provide us with 6 month and 1 year progress reports.
Do you have a target at-risk population that you like to focus on?
We do not have a specific target age range. We provide grants to organizations that have programs, which benefit many children of all ages and at-risk youth throughout the community.
Can I volunteer or assist the Rotary Club of Saint John in any of it's projects?
From time to time we do fund projects that need volunteers as well as our own fundraisers which can always use some extra help. We will post volunteer requests from time to time. Please check back.
