Global Grant First Steps

Application

Global Grant Financing• Minimum budget for a global grant is

US$30,000 ($15,000 Grant from World Fund)

• DDF matched 100% with World Fund (eg $15,000 DDF matched with $15,000 from World Fund)

• Rotarian and non-Rotarian cash contributions matched 50% with World Fund (eg $10,000 cash is matched with $5,000 from World Fund)

Global Grant Financing Example

Financing Guidelines• International sponsors provide at least 30%

of total sponsor funding

• Funds cannot be raised from beneficiaries or cooperating organizations in exchange for a grant

• Funds cannot come from other grants

• Contributions credited to donor

Conflict of Interest• Exists when a Rotarian benefits financially

or personally from a grant

• Benefit can be direct to a Rotarian or indirect to an associate of the Rotarian

District Guidelines• There is no time limit on applications for DDF (District Designated Funds), but the earlier the better for availability of funds.

• Availability of DDF will be applied as the District Foundation Committee deem fair

• Funds may be rolled over from one year to another
