Resources for Rotary Members
This is the go-to page for Foundation resources for Rotary members — we encourage you to bookmark the page!
The Key Resources section provides an extremely convenient way to find often-used information, such as forms and guides.
The Rotary Project Lifecycle section is categorised according to the stages of development of your project: from evaluation to funding, as well as publicising results.
Accessing some of the resources listed on this page requires that you login to your My Rotary account. If you are a Rotary member and do not currently have a My Rotary account, we’d encourage you to create one here, using the same email address you usually use for your Rotary communications. You will find that My Rotary provides access to a wide range of valuable information, such as reports, images, logos and training.

If you’ve completed a grant-funded project that’s making a real difference in people’s lives, why not tell the world about it! We include suitable projects in the Projects Section of this site.
CSR Grants
In April 2023, the Trustees of The Rotary Foundation approved a new kind of grant for deployment in Australia and Brazil—Corporate Social Responsibility Grants, or CSR Grants. CSR Grants provide a straightforward way for corporations to engage with Rotary in the delivery of mutually agreed outcomes. For more information, please visit our CSR Grants page.
Clubs and districts that would like to engage with RFA to pursue an opportunity with a prospective corporate donor can register their project here.
