The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International December 2014Do Good In The World12 In 2003 the District Simplified Grant (DSG) program enabled D-5030 to draw 30% of its DDF to fund local and international projects: D-5030 received a DSG of $49,900 each year for 10 years through 2013 exclusively for LOCAL projects. Thats $499,000 in Rotary Foundation funds augmenting club foundation funds directed to LOCAL community projects.
