Rotary community grants open

By Frank Neill

Applications for this year’s round of Rotary Club of Karori grants are open.

Karori Rotary provides funding for projects that will deliver benefit to a significant number of Karori, Makara, Northland and Kelburn residents. Typically, it will be projects supporting many, rather than direct support to an individual.

This does not rule out the provision of support for individuals who live in these areas and who propose a project that meets these criteria, but in general it is more likely that projects supported by groups will qualify. The maximum grant is $2,000 per activity.

Applications close on Friday 10 March.

To be able to consider applications, Karori Rotary needs financial information, such as the organisation’s balance sheet and most recent income and expenditure.

Registered charities need to advise their CC number.

Organisations that have a project they think qualifies and would like to apply for a grant can obtain an Expression of Interest Form from rotary.secretary@icloud.com.
