Matching Grants Budget Update

10 March 2009 - Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation have had to make important decisions in light of the current financial environment.  At the January 2009 Trustee Meeting, a decision was made to reduce the 2008-09 Matching Grant budget in order to conserve The Rotary Foundation’s World Fund. As of 2 March 2009, the Matching Grant budget has been fully committed and the Trustees of the Foundation are unable to approve any additional grant applications.

As a result of the budget reductions no new Matching Grant applications will be accepted in the 2008-09 Rotary year. New applications received by TRF will be returned to the sponsors without processing.  Applications that were received by TRF prior to the commitment of the available budget will remain at the Foundation and can move forward for processing in the 2009-10 Rotary year. Humanitarian Grants staff are currently in the process of notifying the sponsors of these applications, and their district leadership, about these updates.

At their April 2009 meeting, the Trustees will evaluate the current financial situation and approve a budget for 2009-10.  Detailed information about Matching Grant funding will be available after the Trustee meeting and the Rotary International website will be updated with all pertinent information.  Please visit www.rotary.org for further updates.  Thank you for your patience and understanding during these difficult financial times.
