A look at the 2019-2020 District Grants:

02 Thursday Jan 2020

Posted by Carol Dois Woodward in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

Variety and value of grants growing:

This article is a reprint from the January 2020 Spirit of 7600, just in case you missed reading it there.

Each year since the 2013-2014 new grant process began, the grant funds available have grown as have the size and variety of district grants. District grant policies have fostered multi-club grants, regularized the grant application process, and auditing procedures have improved the stewardship of district grant funds.

In the 2019-2020 Grant year, District 7600 had almost $153,500 in designated funds to dispense and hosted two rounds of grant applications. The second round of grant applications allowed the District Grants Team to award almost all of the district designated funds (DDF) available. With clubs joining each other on grant projects and partnering with other nonprofits and governmental agencies the total financial impact of this year’s district grants totals $263,364. This represents a significant and lasting impact for the communities in central and southeast Virginia.

In total there were 20 district grants awarded. But three clubs double dipped in interesting ways.  South Hill came back in Round Two to purchase more benches for its project and the clubs of Warwick at City Center Newport News and Virginia Peninsula joined together in two separate district grants. Double dipping is possible, though any given club may not be awarded more than a total of $5000 DDF.

There were 13 multi-club grants in five of the Areas of Focus. There were ten  grant applications which listed Economic & Community Development as the area focus.  One club listed both Economic & Community Development as well as Maternal & Child Health as its area of focus.  There were seven grants in the Maternal & Child Health Area of focus, and one each in Basic Education & Literacy, Peace & Conflict Resolution, and Disease Prevention/Treatment.  There were not grant projects in the Water & Sanitation Area of Focus. In the early days of “Future Vision” the marketing description of our current grant module most of the district grants clustered in the Maternal & Child Health and Basic Education & Literacy Area of Focus.

If you would like to delve more into the District 7600 grants you can visit dacdb.com. After logging in, click on the District Tab and then click on the Grants icon. Your club may come up with some super ideas for your grant projects next year.

  • Pan Seared Chicken Breast with forest mushrooms
  • Country ham in a chablis buerre blanc

Zone Dinner

How many of these usual suspects do you recognize?

A vegan plate with quinoa & vegetable stuffed green pepper is available and can be selected when you register on dacdb.com

A cash bar reception with light appetizers precedes dinner and attendees may purchase wine by the bottle for their tables.

 

Would it be the music?

Back by popular demand, we have Jeff Paul at the keyboard and this year he will be accompanied by his vocalist  Kathleen Plutz. Showtunes, classics, and some oldie faves are in the repertoire.

Would it be the awards?

Ken Hodge CMS

Ken Hodge-Past Pierce Award Recipient

Forty-Four clubs will receive Foundation recognitions. Ten Rotarians from the district will receive District Service Awards.  The Outstanding Alumni Award and the Pierce Foundation Leadership Award will be bestowed upon two very deserving Rotarians from District 7600. How many of your friends will be among the recipients?

The time is now to register. While you are at it, please register your spouse or significant other, or potential Rotarians, as guests. Wouldn’t suggest registering both your spouse and your significant other.  Just a little joke.

Aug 4 – #STARS & #Mustard

30 Monday Jul 2018

Posted by Carol Dois Woodward in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

There is still a little room left at the Workshops:

You can still go on the dacdb.com calendar and register for one of the Sensational Trio of August Rotary Seminars or #STARS for short.  You can choose between Membership, Foundation, or Public Image.  Having trouble registering.  Contact Carol Dois Woodward via Facebook Messenger.  If you want to call, text, or email her, you will find all of her contact information on where? … dacdb.com, of course!

Agenda:

There are four pages of AGENDA — one overall agenda and a separate agenda for each of the seminars.  This will give you the topics and speakers in advance. By the way, agenda is actually the plural of agendum, which is not really used anymore as the singular version of that noun. Agenda has become the singular usage and agendas is plural. Are you confused yet?

And what is all of this about #Mustard?

August 4th happens to be National Mustard Day.  David Rosenthal (Hampton Roads)

Neva Lynde

Neva Lynde

passed along this factoid along to the blogger.  How did he know? No idea.  Anyway, in honor of mustard, we are asking each attendee of the #STARS to bring a new, unopened container of mustard to the Seminars on Saturday. Neva Lynde (James City County Satellite Rotary) suggested that we donate the mustard to the FISH Food Bank and she is willing to deliver the containers of the precious condiment to FISH.

David Rosenthal

David Rosenthal

This recognition of #mustard has ignited some lively conversations: District Rotary Foundation Chair prefers Amish stone ground mustard and/or mustard with horseradish; Jan Rowley prefers almost any Dijon-style mustard; and, David Rosenthal extols the virtues of stadium mustard. What is your favorite mustard?

So, sign up (for a couple of more days) for #STARS and decide which mustard to bring to Williamsburg.

#JointheStars, #STARS, Appaiah Ballachanda, Bob Preston, Chuck Arnason, Dianne Shannon Gordonn, District Rotary Foundation Committee, Foundation, JoAnn Meaker, LaShonda Delivuk, Membership, Mike Jallo, Million Dollar Year, Public Image, Rudy & Catherine Garcia, Sensational Trio of August Rotary Seminars, Shel Douglas, Stan & Debbie Wall

#STARS 16 Days & Counting:

Good news.  You have 16 days to register for the District 7600 #Join the STARS (#STARS for short!)

At least 3 members from each club should attend, if not more.  There are three separate seminars and each Rotarian registers for just one of the seminars … either Membership, Public Image, or Foundation. The chairs or at least a member of each club committee in these areas should be present to learn:

  • best practices
    • Foundation led by Chuck Arnason & Team
    • Membership lead by Mike Jallo & Shel Douglas
    • Public Image led by JoAnn Meaker & team
  • latest Rotary International messaging in each seminar
  • requirements in the documentation updates for clubs activities & projects
  • latest grant requirements with a focus on Community Assessments
  • Lashonda Delivuk, D7570 Public Image Vice-Chair, speaking in both the membership & public image seminars

LaShonda in Rotary Magazine (2)

Clubs, a message to all … want to excel in innovative club presence, reporting, and starsvitality … send as many club members as possible to be exposed to and ride the rockets that will send your club to the #STARS.

Register by July 28th on dacdb.com calendar and #JoinTheStars!

When you have registered consider, going on your facebook page and put #STARS into your post and mention that you have registered for one of the seminars.  If you want to tell folks which one use a hashtag, e.g. #foundation or #membership or #publicimage. That will build the buzz for the seminars.

Million$Year … 2017-2018

The Rotary Foundation books have closed for the 2017-2018 year.  There will be some adjustments, but it is totally safe to report that in Past District Governor John Padgett’s and District Rotary Foundation Chair, Chuck Arnason’s past year, District 7600’s members donated 1.1 million dollars in total giving. More refined figures will be released soon, but needless to say, this is a B A N N E R year for District 7600. More on the other figures very soon.

Rotary helping communities

11 Monday Dec 2017

Posted by Carol Dois Woodward in Uncategorized

Economic & Community Development Grants (continued):

We began a series on economic and community development district grants about a month ago.  There were a few hiccups in the publication schedule … the District Foundation Awards Banquet, a week of vacation, and a most interesting Windows 10 upgrade which imposed some unexpected adventures with the publication platform.  Today we offer the final article in the series about the 2017-2018 economic and community development district grants.

The District Foundation Committee awarded 19 district grants shared by 30 clubs.  Of those 19 district grants, 7 were devoted in total or in part to Economic and Community Development. As published previously, grants in this area of focus encourage multi-club, co-operation, partnerships with local governments, corporations, or non-profits, and these grants create the opportunity to make sizeable, long-lasting regional impacts.

We described three of these grants in considerable detail already, but here we provide a brief synopsis of the 7 grants and the clubs involved.  You can get more detail by logging onto dacdb.com and clicking on the ‘Grants’ tab.

The seven grants:

Blackstone:  A bus stop structure to protect riders from the element.

Bon Air:  Safe ramps for homes in partnership with project:HOMES.

projectHOMES

 

Chester:  Improvements, remodeling, and repair to a regional K-9 training facility for law enforcement.  Will allow training of K-9s to assist with the elderly and with youth.

Colonial Heights, Petersburg, & Petersburg Breakfast:  Refurbishment of a deteriorated park to provide a safe playground for family outdoor activities.

Fluvanna:  In conjunction with Carysbrook Elementary,  this grant will create and stock an advanced STEAM lab for 3d and 4th graders, which enrollment population is expected to grow in the next few years.

Hampton Roads and Norfolk-Sunrise:  Winterization, repair, and improvements to cabins at this Girl Scout Campground.  The Campground has been an important regional resource for decades.

Prince George Resource RoomPrince George County: Improvement and enhancement of a Computer Resource Room at the Central Wellness Center.  The Center is a recent adaptive rehabilitative use of a former county middle school.  Under the auspices of the county Parks and Recreation Department, this facility will provide wellness equipment and classes, a computer lab, as well as high-speed broadband in an area of this rural county with limited access to such services.

Sharing the wealth:

In past years at every district training, the most frequent request was to have a way to share ideas among the clubs about their projects and activities.  We humbly suggest that the district and club database (dacdb.com), the district website, and the almost universal facebook pages for district clubs are starting points.

“See” you on Thursday.

90-day calendar, Chesapeake PETS, GMS, Grant Management Seminar, PrePETS, Presidential Retreat

A look at the next 90-days in the calendar …

It is such an exciting Rotary time of year, isn’t it?  Current club leaders are planning out the rest of their terms and incoming club leaders are on learning and planning curves as they plan for their 2017-18 year. Those arcs are not mutually exclusive.  Cooperation and joint planning will result in a smooth transition.  What’s ahead?

January 28: Rescheduled Presidential Retreat and PrePresidents-Elect Training Seminar or PrePETS for short (an homage to Bill Billings) in Richmond. This seminar is of particular importance to both Presidents and Presidents-Elect as there are joint sessions and separate session tailored to the unique needs of each office.  If you didn’t register for the original event, now is your chance to do so on the district and club database (dacdb.com).

February 10 & 11: District Team Training Seminar at Chanco on the James in Surry County. This is a ‘by invitation only’ training event for the 2017-18 district leadership team. Members of the District Foundation Committee Team will attend only on Saturday, February 11 unless notified differently.  Registration, however, is required on dacdb.com.

March 2-5: Presidents-Elect Training Seminar (Chesapeake PETS) in Chantilly, VA.  Required training for current Presidents-Elect who will be Presidents in the 2017-18 Rotary year.  Again, registration is on dacdb.com.

March 25:  Grant Management Seminar (GMS) at the Colonial Heritage Golf Club in wayne-boggs-and-grant-cosingWilliamsburg.  Any club wishing to apply for a district or a global grant must have one or more representatives attend one of the three scheduled GMS events.  This one is a hiney-in-the-chair-in-person seminar.  There is a great Full Southern Breakfast and ends around noon.  There will be additional GMS Webinars in April. One will focus on district grants and the other will focus on global grants.  You may want to do all three :), but no extraordinary breakfast with the webinars.  Registration will be available soon on dacdb.com for the March 25th GMS.

If you have questions about any of the above training events contact Carol Woodward.  If she doesn’t know the answer, she can get it for you.  Where can you find her contact info? Why, in dacdb.com, of course.

The “I” in global grant

LET’S PUT THE “I” IN ROTARY INTERNATIONAL

By Bill Liepis, a Citation for Meritorious Service Recipient

As we enter Rotary Foundation month, it is timely to ponder the visionary impact of Arch Krumph on today’s Rotarians throughout the world community. As illustrated in the November Rotarian, the Foundation that started so humbly with one small donation in 1917 has truly become a “mighty lever to move the world”.

How do you and your club become a force in applying this leverage?

 

bill-liepis-west-metro

         Bill Liepis       

It’s as simple as being a player in an international (the “I”) global grant. Not all clubs are positioned or motivated to be the lead primary sponsor club. Yet it is a real possibility for any club to be a contributing player. By doing this you add pressure to the Foundation lever. Each dollar donated by a club or individual Rotarian to a global grant, receives a match of $.50 from the Foundation World Fund … your $200 becomes $300 to do even more good. Additionally, after accounting for all the D7600 club dollars promised for a given grant there will be an allocation of District Designated Fund (DDF) credits that will be converted to real dollars and matched on a $1:$1 basis by the World Fund when the grant is approved. The impact of these matches is gives even more lift to make a sustainable and worthwhile difference.

 

District 7600 clubs have a positive record of service in our local communities through the annual allocation of DDF to District grants and club self-funded projects. Why not consider how  to” stretch your community” to do service in the Caribbean (child health), Costa Rica (economic development), Liberia (water), the Philippines (child health), Rwanda (medical team training), or Uganda (water). All these countries have in process applications being sponsored by D7600 primary clubs that are ready and willing to share the joy and satisfaction of doing good around the world with willing contributing partners. There is no bottom line for what a club might want to commit but rather the willingness to be a part of a bigger impact. And should your club have a member(s) that have a passion borne out of an association with an international club consider being the lead sponsor for D7600.

Whatever the motivation feel free to contact your D7600 Grants Team for more information, a global grants course “101”, or to point you to a contact for one of the in-process grants:  Chuck Arnason, Stephen Beer, SuAnne Bryant, or Bill Liepis.

Club Foundation Giving Reports …episode 2 … adding name of the Club Foundation Chair to My Rotary

23 Tuesday Aug 2016

Posted by Carol Dois Woodward in Foundation Reports, Rotary 7600 Foundation News, Uncategorized

Accessing Reports, Assigned Positions, Club Foundation Chairs, Club Foundation Reports, Foundation Advocates, My Rotary

ShelDanaDebbie

This article by Debbie Wall (Colonial Heights), District Secretary and District Communication Officer, is the second in a series of three articles describing the steps for Club Foundation Chairs (CFCs) to take in order to access club giving reports. The first article (August 16) addressed setting up an account in ‘My Rotary’ which is the first step in the CFCs having such access.  This week  the article addresses ‘assigned positions’ which is step 2 which must be completed for the CFC to access his or her club reports.  

 

Who can enter the Club Foundation Chair’s name into My Rotary?

Any club officer whose name has already been entered into the roster of club officers in My Rotary  can enter the name of the Club Foundation Chair into the club’s assigned positions in My Rotary.  The assigned positions are President, Secretary, Treasurer, Executive Secretary (if there is one) the Membership Chair, and the Club Foundation Chair.  So it is likely that the President or the Club Secretary has already entered the CFC’s name.  Ask them point blank if  the name of the CFC has been entered into the assigned position in My Rotary. This is necessary even if the CFC for this year also served in the prior year.  The name of any assigned position must be entered each year.

If you are the club’s Foundation Chair logon to rotary.org. Click on My Rotary. Click on The Rotary Foundation and then on Foundation Reports.

2016-08-23

After Clicking on Foundation Reports scroll down the left side of the page until you see Club Giving. Click on View Reports.

2016-08-23 (1)

If you can access the reports then you are all set up.  If not, it is likely that the President or Club Secretary will need to enter your name into the assigned position pronto.  This handy guide ‘ how to add club officer  ‘ will make it easy as pie. Share it with your Club President or Club Secretary.

Want in-person help?  Why not give your Foundation Advocate a call.  There are nine of them who serve various geographic areas within our district.  If your Club President or Secretary needs assistance entering your name into the assigned position in My Rotary, or if that has already been done and you need assistance navigating to your club’s reports or using them, your Foundation Advocate can provide that assistance.  For your convenience click Advocates and their Clubs for a list of the Foundation Advocates and the clubs each Foundation Advocate  serves.

Next week in episode 3 pf this series, the Foundation Giving Reports and how to use them will be explored

Your comments on this article are invited.  Was the article helpful? How? How Not?
