The Overland Park Rotary Foundation on behalf of the Overland Park Rotary Club plans to award one $5000 grant to a community organization or agency in the Kansas City metro that provide human services/human need to members of our communities, with preference given to organizations that benefit residents of Overland Park and Johnson County.

The following is the official application and guidelines that would pertain to all Overland Park Rotary Club members and outside requests which was adopted by the Overland Park Foundation Board.

An application must be from an Overland Park Rotary Club member in good standing or from a community organization or community agency that must be sponsored by an Overland Park Rotary Club member in good standing.  An organization or agency who has received funding from the Overland Park Rotary Foundation within the past five years will not be eligible for a Spring 2024 grant award. 

The application for a $5000 grant from the Overland Park Rotary Foundation Board should submit in writing the nature of the request to include/address the following:

• An explanation reflecting the alignment with objectives of the funding to provide human services/human need or relief within the Kansas City Metro
• A specific description of how the funds will be used
• A timeframe describing when and how the funds will be used
• A description of the organization or individuals receiving the funds
