The Rotary Foundation transforms your gifts into projects that change lives both close to home and around the world. As the charitable arm of Rotary, we tap into a global network of Rotarians who invest their time, money, and expertise into our priorities, such as eradicating polio and promoting peace. Foundation grants empower Rotarians to approach challenges such as poverty, illiteracy, and malnutrition with sustainable solutions that leave a lasting impact.
 
Strong financial oversight, a stellar charity rating, and a unique funding model mean that we make the very most of your contribution. Give and become a part of Rotary’s life-changing work!
 
Gear up for #GivingTuesday on 1 December
 
Celebrate the end of Foundation Month and the beginning of the holiday season on 1 December by participating in #GivingTuesday, a global movement to celebrate generosity and to give to the charities closest to your heart. Last year, Rotary clubs joined together to give over $100,000 to our Foundation on #GivingTuesday and this year we want to do even more!
