Future Vision Overview

Page managed by Gary Vilhauer, updated July 2011

The Rotary Foundation Future Vision Plan is designed to:

  • Simplify Foundation programs and processes consistent with the mission
  • Focus Rotarian service efforts where they will have the greatest impact by addressing priority world needs that are relevant to Rotarians
  • Offer program options to help achieve both global and local goals
  • Increase the sense of ownership at the district and club levels by transferring more decisions to the districts
  • Gain greater understanding of The Rotary Foundation’s work and enhance Rotary’s public image

A Future Vision Pilot overview can be viewed at the Rotary International Website at this link.

District 5160 is one of 100 Districts selected from the 531 districts around the world to participate in the three year pilot program that began July 1, 2010. A list of all the Future Vision pilot districts is at this link.

Under the Future Vision Plan there are two types of Grants, Global and District. District 5160 Rotary Clubs must be qualified in order to receive District Designated Funds (DDF) for Global and/or District Grants. Club Qualification information can be found in the Grants - Club Qualification tab
