4. If more than one team is traveling under a single grant, the teams must share the same two primary
sponsors and begin travel within one year of each other.

composition need to be reported to and approved by the Foundation.

Global grant applications will have these kinds of assessments:

1. Requests for a World Fund amount up to $50,000, known as Level 1 applications, will be reviewed by the
general secretary and analyzed by an expert in the area of focus if necessary.

2. Requests for a World Fund amount of $50,001-$200,000, or total funding of $100,001-$400,000
involving directed gifts or endowment earnings, known as Level 2 applications, will be reviewed by the
general secretary, analyzed by an expert in the area of focus, and have an interim site visit from The
Rotary Foundation Cadre of Technical Advisers.

3. Requests for a World Fund amount of $200,001-$400,000, or total funding of $400,001 or more
involving directed gifts or endowment earnings, known as Level 3 applications, will be reviewed by the
general secretary, analyzed by an expert in the area of focus, have an advance site visit from the Cadre,
and have an audit and/or an interim site visit by the Cadre. These applications are also reviewed by the
Trustees. The Trustees will review global grant applications received by:
a. 1 June in September/October

b. 1 October in January
c. 1 December in April

d. 1 March in June

An area of focus expert, working with the Cadre chair, may decide that a grant needs a different level of
assessment, and can waive or add requirements. Grants that consist exclusively of a vocational training team or
scholarship are exempt from Cadre review requirements.

Travel Service (RITS) or organize travel on their own.

Rotary Foundation grants will cover these budgeted expenses related to international travel:

1. Economy-class ticket(s)
2. Transportation to and from airports and local travel related to implementing the grant

3. The cost of inoculations or immunizations, visas, and entry and exit taxes
4. Normal and reasonable luggage charges

5. Travel insurance
