Announcing: 2023-24 District Grant Match Increase - Get Certified

Great news! The District Foundation team has decided to match District grants at 1.25x to 1 for the 2023-24 grant cycle. This means you can do even more on your District grants.
 
So if you raise $1,500 in club funds, the District will match your donations for $1,875.00.
 
Multiple club projects will also receive the match meaning 4 clubs coming together can receive a $7,500.00 match!
 
Let's do some great work in our communities and know Rotary is doing great work in District 5650.
