Our Club and Foundation
The Lincoln Rotary Club Foundation is supported by the members of the Rotary Club of Lincoln. The club was founded in 1925 and has provided support to the Lincoln community since that time. We continue to serve in a variety of ways including scholarships, assistance to youth, support of community events, and many other things. The Foundation is set up under the laws as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization (Tax ID # 71-0999576).
Funding Assistance from our Foundation
The Lincoln Rotary Club Foundation seeks requests for funding assistance from 501(c)(3) and other viable groups for projects benefiting the Lincoln area. Proposals up to $1000 will be considered with greater amounts reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Special consideration will be given to proposals involving participation of Rotary Club of Lincoln members. If you or your organization would like to apply for funding from our foundation, contact one of our Rotary members or come to one of our meetings.
Scholarships
The Lincoln Rotary Club Foundation annually provides scholarships to graduates from Western Placer Unified School District. These scholarships are generally awarded to students upon graduation from high school, but other applications from continuing or re-entering undergraduate students will be considered on a case-by-case basis. These scholarships may be one of the following categories:
- General student assistance based upon student qualifications and need, applicable to both 2- and 4-year degrees and other technical training
- Student assistance for engineering or construction management (2- and 4-year degrees) funded by a scholarship fund created by deceased Lincoln Rotarian Alan Bradford. Students from Western Placer Unified School District high schools are eligible for up to four years based on progress and academic achievement. Continuing receipt requires reapplication by the student.
The financial assistance provided by the Lincoln Rotary Club Foundation may be used at the discretion of the student for tuition, fees, books, supplies, and other necessary educational expenses. Contact our Youth Services Chair if you wish to apply.
Contributions
The Lincoln Rotary Club Foundation was founded in 2005 with the commitment to foster a sense of community while growing its funds to support various projects and opportunities brought to us from our local community. While we invest time and resources into giving back, we also encourage members and the community to support our fund raising efforts. As we continue to grow, we are looking for additional support from our friends and from the community. How can you help? Please donate using the icon below.
