Article #9: What Every Rotarian Should Know About The Rotary Foundation

The Rotary Foundation (TRF) is one of Rotary’s most powerful tools—but many members don’t fully understand how it works. At RLI, we make it simple: The Foundation is Rotary’s engine for doing good around the world, turning donations into projects with global impact.

Here’s what every Rotarian should know:
💰 Your donation to TRF supports projects locally and globally through District and Global Grants.
🌍 Clubs can apply for grant funding to amplify their service efforts.
🕊️ TRF funds peace fellowships, scholarships, and major initiatives like PolioPlus.

When members understand TRF, they’re more likely to support it—and use it. Your club might be one great idea away from grant funding that could multiply your impact.
