Future Vision Plan overview
T he Future Vision Plan is The Rotary Foundation’s new grant model to support club and district humanitarian and educational projects.
Why was it adopted?
The Foundation Trustees identified a growing need to focus efforts in order to achieve greater impact, more public recognition, and streamlined operations for improved efficiency. The new grant structure will enable Rotarians to change people’s lives, make the world a better place, and help meet the priorities and goals of Rotary's strategic plan.
When does it start?
A three-year pilot began in July 2010, with 100 Rotary districts testing the plan. All districts will transition to the new model in July 2013.
How does it work?
Under Future Vision, the Foundation offers two types of grants. District grants are block grants that enable clubs and districts to address immediate needs in their communities and abroad. Global grants offer opportunities to participate in strategically focused, high-impact activities within the six areas of focus. Global grants range from $30,000 to $400,000.
