Every year we serve communities around the world through thoughtfully planned out sustainable projects. Grant funds help us to support these projects, and are regulated through club qualification.
Qualification is the process that your club establishes to ensure compliance with Foundation policies, avoid misuse and mismanagement of grant funds, and ensure that their members have the appropriate training and resources. These measures establish proper stewardship controls and enable clubs to maintain qualified status. Clubs that fail to comply risk losing the ability to participate in the Foundation grants program.
To participate in Rotary grants, your club must agree to implement the financial and stewardship requirements in this memorandum of understanding (MOU) provided by The Rotary Foundation (TRF) and to send at least two club members to the district’s grant management seminar each year.
MOU Certification Process:
To participate in Rotary Foundation Global and District Grants, the Club must fulfill the following:
- Be CURRENT with Rotary International and District dues;
- Agree to implement the financial and stewardship requirements in this Club Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU)
- Either send at least TWO or more Club members to the District’s Grant Management seminar each year OR have at least TWO or more Club member(s) take the Grant Management webinar.
- The CLUB PRESIDENT AND CLUB PRESIDENT-ELECT MUST THEN SIGN THE CLUB MOU AND SUBMIT IT TO THE DISTRICT OFFICE.
By completing these requirements, and only then, the Club becomes qualified and eligible to participate in the TRF grant program.
Grant Management Webinar Instructions:
- View the webinar and powerpoint.
- After completing the webinar and powerpoint, take the MOU quiz. Participants who answer all questions correctly will receive via email the MOU which must be signed by the Club President and Club President-Elect. Return the MOU to the District Office at office@rotary5280.org.
- Upon receipt of the signed MOU, you will be listed under your Rotary club name as Club MOU Certified 2020-2021; however, only when one or more of your club members have signed a Club MOU will your club be certified and can then participate in the TRF and District Grant programs.
