The Community Grants Committee is seeking grant applications for Q3 2025, in the category of Education Programs.
The Rotary Club of Fort Collins (RCFC) plans to award financial grants to deserving 501(c)(3) non-profit service organizations located in the Fort Collins area. Grants will be awarded in specific categories quarterly. For the third quarter of 2025, the category will be Education Programs. Key dates:
1) We will begin accepting applications on 7/1/2025
2) Application due date is August 22nd, and
3) Grant awards will be made starting in September.
Complete details of the grant program, eligibility criteria, application requirements, grant categories, submission instructions, and submission dates for each category may be found at https://rotarycluboffortcollins.org/Page/community-grants. The Community Grants Committee will favor innovative projects that address local needs and contain an active volunteer service opportunity for RCFC members. Please provide detailed information about any volunteer activities related to your grant application project so that we may consider the recruitment of Rotary Club of Fort Collins members as volunteers. Grants may be used for special projects or services that include capital items. Grants cannot be used to pay debt, for general operating expenses, to assist specific individuals or to duplicate an established project in the community. Published materials related to a grant award project (magazines, flyers, brochures, booklets, etc.) should be imprinted with the Rotary International Gear Symbol logo
and should acknowledge support from the Rotary Club of Fort Collins. Organizations receiving grant awards will be asked to submit a grant award project report six months after the grant award. The Community Grants Committee will evaluate all grant applications received by the deadline below and then will approve grants to be funded.
Completed applications for Education Programs must be submitted in electronic PDF format by email to grants@rotarycluboffortcollins.org by 5:00 p.m., on Friday, August 22nd. Grant recipients in the Education Program category will be notified and checks will be distributed starting in September.
