Project Description

Country: USA

Location: Fort Collins, CO

Total Budget: $12,000

Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy

Activity Type: Education: Scholarship

Summary: Providing college scholarships to students graduating from the Poudre Scool District in Colorado.


Each year the Rotary Club of Fort Collins Breakfast accepts scholarship applications from students attending high school in the local school district. Rotarians screen approximately 100 applications and ultimately select two students to receive $6,000 scholarships, paid out over four years. The students are encouraged to attend our club when possible. Our club assigns a mentor for each scholarship recipient. We are applying for a $1,000 grant to help defray the cost of those scholarships. We currently have 8 students on scholarship with an annual cost of $12,000.

Andrew,

I had to cancel the signature process so you could edit your project description and change the year to the 25 -26 Rotary year.

Andrew,

The District had $18,000 more grant requests than available DDF for the 25 - 26 grant year. In order to meet the available DDF it was determined that we need to reduce all scholarship and repeat grants by $500. I have cancelled your signature process and reduced your DDF request by $500. You will need to either reduce the total budget for your grant or increase your club giving by $500 so it balances. Once you have made this adjustment please start the signature process again.

If you have any questions please email or call me at 970-629-0654.
