The approach being
adopted by District 1070’s Rotary Foundation Committee is as detailed in the
Club Manual. The Club Manual incorporates the procedures by which clubs can
apply for help with projects, details of the training and the qualification
that clubs are expected to undertake.
All of the forms and documents you require for District/Global Grant applications are online and are accessed by links at the bottom of this page. The whole process starts with the completion by the Club President and President-elect of the online Memorandum of Understanding. The link to the MoU is available at the bottom of this page.

From time to time we receive requests
from Clubs and charities both at home and overseas to provide financial support
for proposed Global Grant projects. These requests are recorded as Global Grant
Opportunities in our database with links to the project details; we commend
these projects to Clubs seeking service opportunities. Further advice is
available from your Grants Team.
Grants General
Apply for a Grant
Talk to the District Rotary Foundation Chairman (DRFC) Hugh Holden.
Print and read the The Rotary Foundation Terms and ConditionsPerhaps best to download and email this document to Club President, President Elect and the International or Community Chairman.
For further
information we encourage clubs to read The Rotary Foundation
Terms and Conditions and the District 1070 Foundation Club Manual. Clubs wishing to
apply for District Grants, whether for projects in their local communities or
overseas, must complete a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and Proposal for their grant projects by the end
of June each year. For more information on Rotary Foundation grants talk to the
District Rotary Foundation Chairman (DRFC) Hugh
Holden.
Global grants have no set time scale, but as we have limited funds to
support these grants, please ensure you talk to Hugh about your thoughts early
on, and keep us updated as to your plan's progress and complete a D1070 Global
Grant Proposal Form (this form does NOT form part of the formal TRF application
but is put in place purely for D1070 purposes to ensure that an adequate sum of
DDF is reserved to fund your project).
