Rotary Club of Syracuse
P&C Grant Application

The Philanthropy & Charities Committee (P&C) is thrilled to announce that the Club’s grant portal is now open for new applications aimed at specific projects. Applications will be accepted from March 1, 2025, through May 15, 2025. During May and early June, the P&C Committee will evaluate the submissions and provide recommendations to the Club’s Board of Directors for approval. Organizations that receive approval will be funded through the Central New York Community Foundation, with disbursements anticipated by mid to late June.


The P&C Committee encourages organizations to apply for grant amounts under $5,000. However, depending on the application's quality and the community’s needs, there may be opportunities to increase the final grant amount.


New for 2025

In addition to funding projects, the Rotary Club of Syracuse is keen to explore additional ways members can assist organizations. This may include volunteer opportunities, mentorship, presentations, consulting, or direct care for recipients. We welcome any suggestions in your application.
