  District Simplified Grant Application

District Simplified Grants (DSG)

District Simplified Grants (DSGs) are a tool for Rotary districts to support short-term, humanitarian projects that benefit the community. Districts can request up to 20 percent of District Designated Funds (DDF) for a grant to support multiple projects locally or internationally.

How to apply

District Rotary Foundation chairs and district governors-elect are strongly encouraged to submit a completed District Simplified Grant Request to The Rotary Foundation in the Rotary year prior to funds being available. As well as being available online, district leadership also receives the DSG Request form (PDF) yearly by mail. Requests may be submitted between 1 July and 31 March. Funds will be made available in the following July.

Clubs interested in receiving DSG funds must contact their district leadership. Funds are only made available to the district.

Terms and conditions

All District Simplified Grants expenditures and activities must comply with the terms and conditions (PDF) of a District Simplified Grant.

Eligibility

Only districts may apply for a DSG. Districts must ensure all expenditures are eligible according to TRF policies and guidelines. Read more about the eligibility of expenditures and activities (PDF).

A final report is due within two months of the full expenditure of funds. Download a copy of the District Simplified Grant Final Report Form (PDF) It's also available as a Word document.

 

Matching Grants

Through Matching Grants, The Rotary Foundation matches contributions raised by Rotary clubs and districts for international humanitarian projects involving Rotary clubs or districts in two or more countries. Frequently, these are World Community Service (WCS) projects.

The Rotary Foundation provides a 1:1 match for District Designated Funds SHARE contributions and a 0.5:1 match for new cash contributions.

Matching Grants How to apply

Applications are accepted from 1 July to 31 March and approved from 1 August to 15 May. Requests over US$25,000 will be considered by the Trustees at the biannual meetings; therefore, applications must be received and complete by 1 August for consideration at the October meeting and by 1 January for consideration at the April meeting.
