Rockville Rotary Club Foundation, Inc.

The Rockville Rotary Club Foundation, Inc. was established in 1980 as a community service to provide financial assistance for worthy charitable and educational programs.  Grant recipients, who each year reflect the community’s wide variety and diversity, include human needs, youth activities, cultural enrichment, and service projects.  Funds are raised through the annual Runfest and private donations.  Grant applications are due on March 31 of each year, announcements are made in the spring, and awards are presented at Charter Night in the fall. 

The 2011 Rockville Rotary Twilight Runfest raised $41,760.97 for the Rockville Recreation Fund and $36,760.97 for 2010 Rockville Rotary Club Foundation grant projects.  As a result of the proceeds from the race and other sources of contributions the Rockville Rotary Foundation grant awards for 2012 was $47,500.
