The Future Vision pilot, a three-year test of The Rotary Foundation's
new, streamlined grant structure, is underway.
The pilot officially began 1 July, with 100 pilot districts that
were selected from among hundreds of applicants in June 2009. The pilot
districts will spend the next three years testing and helping to refine
the Foundation's new grant model before all districts begin to
participate in July 2013.
"I believe that through Future Vision, we will be able to serve our
communities, and the world, in better and more effective ways," said
Glenn E. Estess Sr., 2009-10 Foundation trustee chair, at the 2010 RI
Convention in Montréal, Québec, Canada. "We will do the very most with
everything we have. We will be able to address the challenges, large and
small, that present obstacles to peace -- and dismantle those
obstacles, one by one." read story.
