MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The first goal of the new Rotary Action Plan is increasing our impact - investing in relationships, making decisions grounded in evidence, mobilizing our resources to create solutions that last, and always learning from our experiences.
The Rotary Foundation already does this so well and will continue to be the best possible investment in a better world as the Action Plan is put into effect. Our global grants respond to real community needs. That's because we approve them only after a rigorous community assessment. Then the projects are tailored to the information uncovered during the assessment. Read more...
