We are pleased to announce that District 5890 will sponsor $30,000 Rotary Foundation Global Grant Scholars for the 2025-2026 Rotary year. The deadline for clubs to submit to the District Global Grant Scholarship Committee is November 9, 2024.
Global Grant Scholarships support graduate-level study for career-minded professionals and are required to qualify under one of the seven Areas of Focus established by The Rotary Foundation. Although it is not required in the Global Grant structure, the District Foundation Leadership Team has decided to retain the ambassadorial nature of the scholarship program in District 5890. District 5890's Global Grant Scholarship Application are now available.
The scholarship is worth up to $30,000 USD for a year of study outside of the USA. The goal of the selection process is to recruit highly qualified and deserving candidates. This exclusive scholarship will help fund a student, from the Rotary District 5890 area, to pursue graduate studies and service dreams that will have an impact in one or more of Rotary's areas of focus.
