About Us

ABOUT US

The Stamford Rotary Trust Fund was established in 1961 by The Board of Directors of the Rotary Club of Stamford for exclusively educational, charitable, scientific and literary purposes. Board of trustees is comprised of the past 5 presidents of the Stamford Rotary Club that are available to serve. Communities served by the Trust Fund include Stamford, Greenwich, Darien and New Canaan.

The Rotary Club of Stamford is an organization of local neighbors, friends and community leaders dedicated to creating positive, lasting change in our communities. Adhering to the Rotary International motto “Service Above Self” the Rotary Club of Stamford strives to be an active participant in improving the health, welfare and well-being of people in our communities and around the world.

Throughout the year we award Community Grants to organizations supporting community or economic development for children, health, and families.  We also award academic scholarships to exemplary students pursuing higher education.

The Stamford Rotary Trust Fund is a 501(c)3 organization.
