The Bethlehem Rotary Foundation was established in 2004 in order to create a vehicle for our club to support local projects which are intended to create sustainable change in our community.  Bethlehem Rotary Foundation was formed as a 501(c)3 tax exempt organization which assures that any donation is tax deductible to the donor.  Contributions to the BRF can also be restricted by the donor.  Our Federal Tax ID number is 01-0809432.

We encourage our members that support an organization with a local project to tell them to request funding by completing an application.  

Each October, we accept grant application from local non-profit organizations.   All submissions will be reviewed by a team of Bethlehem Rotary members and evaluated based on requests to fund local projects which address the following Rotary areas of philanthropic focus:  
 
❖ Peace & Conflict Resolution
❖ Disease Prevention & Treatment
❖ Infrastructure
❖ Maternal & Child Health
❖ Education & Literacy
❖ Economic & Community Development
❖ Environment
