FUTURE VISION PLAN GOALS • Simplify programs and processes • Focus Rotarian service efforts to increase global impact • Support global and local efforts • Increase sense of ownership atthe district and club levels • Enhance Rotary’s public image
THREE GRANTS ONE VISION On 1 July 2013, The Rotary Foundation will launch its new grant model, the Future Vision Plan, worldwide. While the Foundation’s primary service opportunities – humanitarian projects, scholarships, and vocational training – will remain, this new model streamlines its programs and helps clubs and districts make a more sustainable impact. Before, the Foundation spent about 20 percent of its annual programs budget on large-scale, high-impact grants. Under Future Vision, the target percentage is 80 percent – a change that will help promote Rotary as a leader in global development and humanitarian service. Aside from PolioPlusand Rotary Peace Fellowships, which will not change, the model simplifies the Foundation’s grant options, offering 3 types instead of 12. Read on to discover the new possibilities.
New Grant Model offers clubs and districts the opportunity to carry out projects and activities that create greater impact, build stronger clubs, increase membership and donor base, enhance public image, and generate enthusiasm to support local service efforts.
