how to_apply_for_funding      

The amounts of money involved can range from as little as £100 to several thousand, it may be for a child's school trip, new sports kit, a specialist piece of equipment for a disabled person, or a community project. The funds may be for local, national or international use.

These are just some of the organisations Whitstable Rotarians have helped over the last few years:

Joy Lane School

Teenage Cancer Trust

Whitstable Sea Cadets

Demelza House

Phoenix Performing Arts

Kiswa Children Uganda

Pilgrims Hospice

British Legion

Westbere Sailing Opportunities

Kent Music School

Tools With a Mission

Hounds for Heroes

Mercy Ships

Lifestraws

Aquabox

Shelterbox

RNLI

The organisation of Rotary is involved in many worthy projects across the world, so whatever the scale of your funding requirement, please do not hesitate to ask, because even if we are not able to help through our Whitstable club, we may be able to help in another way. A typical example of this is:-

The Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholarship program for students

The Ambassadorial Scholarships program promotes international understanding and friendly relations among people of different parts of the world.

The scholarships sponsor undergraduate and graduate students, as well as qualified professionals pursuing vocational studies. While abroad, scholars serve as goodwill ambassadors to the country where they study and give presentations about their own culture to Rotary clubs and other groups.

Back home, scholars share with Rotarians and others the experiences that deepened their understanding of another culture.

The 2010-11 class of Ambassadorial Scholars received US$9.6 million through individual grants of $25,000. Since 1947, a total of $532 million has been awarded to 41,000 men and women.

Through their generous contributions, Rotarians worldwide show a continued faith that today’s scholars will be tomorrow's community and world leaders.
