FOUNDATION GLOBAL GRANT UPDATE

Congratulations to Wahroonga and Chatswood for having their Nepal Global Grant approved last week !

 

We are constantly hearing from other districts complaints that the Global Grant process is too hard and too restrictive.  But in our district we have no complaints !

 

Currently we have 32 active global Grants. whereas we hear that the average in other Australian districts is around 0-4 !

 

It is simply a matter of following the rules and focusing the project  on sustainability.  For years many of us have visited past projects just to find them broken down or completely missing, so it is not hard to understand that in Rotary we want to build projects which are sustainable and that will stay active for many years !

 

If you have a Global Grant project in mind, please ring PDG Tony Castley and he will guide you through the process or recommend other contacts who can help.
