The application for packaged global grants with Oikocredit International is available online. Oikocredit, a Netherlands-based organization that provides financing to microfinance institutions (MFIs) worldwide, is one of The Rotary Foundation’s strategic partners under the Future Vision Plan.

Through packaged global grants, Rotarians will collaborate with select Oikocredit-affiliated MFIs in India, the Philippines, and Uruguay. Together, the MFIs and Rotarians will identify local barriers to economic development and create targeted training programs to help borrowers overcome them. Up to four grants of between US$20,000 and $50,000 each will be awarded annually. These grants, available to Future Vision pilot districts only, will support the economic and community development area of focus.
