The Rotary Foundation Future Vision Plan
Rotary Grants
- We've changed how we structure Rotary grants. Our new system (previously known as Future Vision) focuses primarily on three grant types—district, global, and packaged. It is both more efficient and sustainable, and will help us make a greater impact around the globe.
- This site is the new home for all Rotary grants information. Looking to learn about the new grant system? Apply for a grant? Get information on managing your grant? You'll find it all here.
- In Grant Basics, you can learn more about the grants we offer to Rotarians and how to apply for them. Our Learning & Reference section houses our extensive resource library, including useful reference documents, training materials, and much more.
- The Rotary Foundation offers multiple types of grants to serve the wide variety of projects Rotarians are doing around the world. Explore the different grant types to find which one is right for your activity.
- Learning Center We want to be sure you understand the grants process and have the tools you need to move forward. Our Learning Center has targeted, interactive lessons on grants-related topics that you can do on your own time, at your own pace. Enter site »

- What are District Grants?
- District grants fund smaller, short-term activities that address needs in both your local community and communities worldwide. Each district gets to choose which activities it will fund with these grants. Learn more about district grants
- What are Global Grants?
- Global grants support large international activities with sustainable, measurable outcomes in one or more of the sixareas of focus. The Rotary Foundation accepts global grant applications on a rolling basis throughout the year.Learn more about global grants
- What are Packaged Grants?
- Packaged grants have been predesigned by Rotary and our strategic partners. The activities they fund are similar to those funded by global grants, but the work of designing the activity’s general framework has already been done. Learn more about packaged grants
How do these grant types compare?
- While all Rotary Foundation grants support meaningful activities around the world, they do differ in a number of ways.
