District grants provide funding for small-scale, short-term activities such as humanitarian grants, scholarships, and youth programs. To qualify for application, clubs must attend grant training, input goals into Rotary Central, submit an application by specified deadlines, and complete final report requirements. Matching funds are not required, and funds are allocated based on clubs' contributions to Annual Program Funds. The application process involves setting up club signatures, creating and approving grant requests, and submitting final reports for approval. Grants are issued at the District Conference or mailed to recipients.
