Global Grants

Global Grants are partnerships between clubs in two countries. The minimum total project amount is $30,000. Clubs must be qualified in order to apply. Clubs wanting to apply for global grants should contact Global Grants Chair Gene Medina at the beginning of the process to request and reserve District Designated Funds (DDF) for your project. D5500 only funds humanitarian projects and vocational training teams (VVT). It does not fund Global Grant Scholarships. It also has a total DDF Funding Policy for Global Grants, (please see District 5500 Policy on Allocation of DDF). D5500 clubs should also consult the documents below before opening a Global Grant Application.

Your club needs to be qualified to use Global Grant funds. See the Club Qualification Webpage for information. Click here for: Grant Management Webinar for 2023-24 A minimum of two members must view the Grant Management Seminar for your club to qualify to use Global Grant funds.

It is important to remember that when you apply for a Global Grant, unlike a District Grant, you will be building your application online for the review and approval of a Rotary Foundation Regional Grants Officer (RGO). Therefore, it is important that you take the time necessary to pull everything together. What you do not want to do is to "lock" your draft application before you are confident that you have satisfactorily answered all of the application questions and attached all of the required supporting documentation.
