Overview Of Rotary Foundation Global Study Grants 

Rotary International is a humanitarian service organization which brings together business and professional leaders in order to provide community service, promote integrity, and advance goodwill, peace, and understanding in the world.

The Rotary Foundation offers scholarship funding through the Rotary Foundation Global Grants. The scholarships funds graduate-level coursework or research for one to four academic years.

What global grants support

Global grants can fund:

• Humanitarian projects.

• Scholarships for graduate-level academic studies.

• Vocational training teams, which are groups of professionals who travel abroad either to teach local professionals about their field or to learn more about it themselves.

How they’re funded

Global grants have a minimum budget of $30,000 and a maximum World Fund award of $400,000. 

Grant sponsors can use a combination of District Designated Funds (DDF), cash, and/or directed gifts and endowment earnings to fund a global grant. The Foundation will provide an 80 percent World Fund match for all DDF contributions. There is no minimum World Fund match.
