The Rotary Club of Dundee is always keen to learn about start-up projects that might not have been tried before.
It is not a requirement that you have experience in the voluntary sector. We are looking for people with the ideas and drive to make a difference in their own community. Perhaps, you just need a little encouragement to make something happen. You bring the ideas and maybe Rotary can provide the tools you need to help make things happen.
Projects should be able to show that they help meet one or more of the following objectives;
* improve the lives of a group of residents within Dundee
* encourage volunteers
* support environmental amenities and/or projects within Dundee
* encourage resident-led projects within Dundee.
The maximum grant available is normally £500. This fund is intended to support small-scale resident-led projects and it will not provide ongoing funds for general running costs.
To be eligible to apply you must be an individual or a local group of residents based within Dundee, wanting to provide benefit to the local residents, your community. Applications for this funding will not be accepted from charities, Public sector organisations or private businesses.
The Rotary Club of Dundee have members with many skills and where needed we will make these available to projects with the potential to make a real difference to your community.
There are no application deadlines. Applications will be dealt with on a first come first served basis. All applications will be initially assessed by the Community Service Committee of the Rotary Club of Dundee. You will hear back within 8 weeks of your application being received by us if your application has been successful. Please note the project must be completed within twelve months of receipt of any monies.
Do you have an idea that would make things better in your community? Are you prepared to do something about it? Apply now!
