Pooling of Funds for Global Grants
The District Board of Directors approved revised (May 2026) Grant Terms and Conditions. This has a major positive impact on clubs who, in the past, were unable to raise the USD4,000 to lead a Global Grant and access the funding by the District. The new "Small Club Lead Grants" will allow up to four smaller clubs in our district to pool their funds and lead a Global Grant. It will also provide them with the support needed to plan and execute an International project. Please consult the Rotary District 5360 Grant Terms and Conditions for all details.
