Our Charitable Fund Grants
The Eagle-Garden City Rotary Club's next grant cycle will be in the winter of 2022-2023.
The Rotary Club of Eagle-Garden City appreciates all that nonprofits do to serve others. As part of our own Rotary creed, "service above self," we maintain the Eagle-Garden City Rotary Charitable Fund and periodically award grants to qualifying nonprofits (designated 501c3 organizations).
Our grants range from $300 to $1,500, and the club prefers to support specific, detailed projects over general programs. Preferred projects also align with one or more of Rotary's seven areas of focus:
- Promoting peace
- Fighting disease
- Providing clean water, sanitation and hygiene
- Saving mothers and children
- Supporting education
- Growing local economies
- Protecting the environment
