Global and District Grants
Earth Network Rotary Club supports global and district grants that connect people, purpose, and the planet, transforming learning into action to protect Earth’s vital resources of air, water, land, and energy. We focus on grants that advance environmental sustainability and stewardship—especially those that address the global biodiversity, climate, and pollution crisis while supporting the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Learn more about the climate solutions behind our work at Project Drawdown.
We’re currently supporting the clubs and districts that are developing these Rotary International and District grants. We chose these projects because they align with Rotary's 4 Way Test, 7 Areas of Focus, 8 Pillars of Peace, and the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals. 47817.org helps Rotarians identify simple changes that expand our impact.
Motagua River
Rotary International Global Grant number GG270824
The Motagua River has become one of the largest sources of ocean plastic pollution in the world, carrying significant volumes of waste from inland communities to the Caribbean Sea. Rotary clubs across Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize are working together with partners to address this crisis through waste interception, improved waste management, community education, and environmental monitoring—including critical water testing efforts.

Uganda Solar Project
Nearly 700 million people live without electricity. Solar + battery microgrids can change that quickly, powering homes, businesses, healthcare, education, and opportunity. Rotarians and All We Are are partnering to build a self-sustaining microgrid in Kyayi, Uganda, not just to power one community, but to create a model that can be replicated in Uganda and beyond.
Help us power Kyayi, prove the model, and multiply the impact.
