The Rotary Foundation contact center has the answers

Do you have questions about Foundation programs such as Ambassadorial Scholarships or Group Study Exchange? Is your club thinking about applying for a Rotary Foundation grant, but has questions about the process? Are you wondering how much more you need to contribute to become a Paul Harris Fellow?

A team of Foundation staff members is on hand to answer all these questions and more at the Rotary Foundation Contact Center.

The toll-free number (866-9-ROTARY) is currently available only to callers in North America, however the e-mail address may be used by anyone around the world. Service is presently limited to English.

Contact Center manager Clifton Healy says that 90 to 95 percent of callers get answers to their questions in their first call. Some questions do require research, such as specific grant questions, which are forwarded to the appropriate grant coordinator.
 
"We can e-mail Rotarians their donor history; we can provide a file activity report for grants," Healy says. "We can answer general questions about all divisions of The Rotary Foundation."

Reach the Rotary Foundation Contact Center at 866-9-ROTARY (866-976-8279) or at contact.center@rotary.org, Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST.
