The Rotary Club of Carlsbad Foundation
The Rotary Club of Carlsbad has a foundation to fund scholarships for local students.   Since 1980 the club’s foundation has awarded hundreds of scholarships to students in the community; giving many young adults a chance to fulfill their dreams.   It is organized as a 501(C)(3), Federal ID# 95-3489812, not-for-profit organization.
 
Carlsbad Rotary Foundation began in 1980 with a gift of $20,000 from Bill Smith, a club member.  The Club, through various fundraisers, contributes to the principal of the scholarship fund.  As a rule, only the earnings are used to fund the scholarships awarded.  Over $50,000 has been awarded over the last 4 years!  We estimate that over $400,000 has been awarded since inception of the Foundation!  The Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors, comprised of current or former Rotary Club of Carlsbad members.
