Humanitarian grants from The Rotary Foundation enable Rotarians to increase their support of international service projects that can help in areas such as this lettuce farm in Niger. Contributions to Rotary Foundation funds enable Rotarians to carry out humanitarian and educational projects.

Donors may direct their gifts to three main funds: the Annual Programs Fund, which supports the Foundation’s humanitarian, educational, and cultural exchange programs worldwide; the Permanent Fund, which provides an endowment; and the PolioPlus Fund.
