Join The Rotary Club of Richmond in Making a Difference

The Rotary Club of Richmond (RCR) seeks to support local non-profit organizations in our community who are making a difference in the critical needs of citizens in the city of Richmond, VA and surrounding areas. 

We encourage local non-profit organizations to apply for grants February 15 - March 31, 2026.

The Rotary Club of Richmond Project-Grants Committee and its recommendation will be made to the Rotary Club of Richmond Board of Directors during the RCR April Board meeting.

FAQs:

How will Rotarians participate and how will the RCR be recognized: RCR seeks to fund organizations where our club members can actively participate by volunteering with the organization or where the club is recognized by the grantee on social media and/or the Annual Report distributed by the non-profit.

Organizations are invited to apply every year and will be evaluated using the criteria set forth herein. 

The RCR will expect a report from the grantee at the end of the one-year funding period. This will include data from the organization as to how the funds were spent and their performance. Please include a story showing the impact of your work. If no report is produced, the grantee will not be considered for another year of funding. A site visit may be requested.
