When Rotarians make a contribution to The Rotary Foundation, 50%comes back to the district as DDF (District Designated Funds) in three years and the district allocates these funds to various Foundation Sub-committees. The important requirements for making these grants are active Rotarian participation and fulfilling reporting requirements. Grants will not be made to purchase land or buildings, renovation of structure, salaries or travel expenses.
