District governors may now apply to be a Future Vision Plan pilot district. Applications must be received by The Rotary Foundation no later than 15 May at 17:00 Central Time. The application can be found on Member Access.

The pilot is a three-year test of the Future Vision Plan’s new grant structure, which simplifies the process into two types of grants: Rotary Foundation District Grants and Rotary Foundation Global Grants. The pilot begins 1 July 2010.

Districts interested in applying must obtain approval from two-thirds of their member clubs. From the applicants, The Foundation Trustees will select up to 100 districts. Read more about district selection and qualifications.

Throughout its more than 90-year history, the Foundation has made only slight modifications to its programs. The Future Vision Plan -- and those districts that participate in the pilot -- will assist the Foundation in creating a more effective and efficient way to help Rotarians develop diverse projects with greater impact and sustainable outcomes.
