Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be a Rotarian to join?
No. While voting membership is reserved for Rotarians/Rotaractors, we actively recruit non-Rotarian professionals as Technical Associates. We need engineers, data scientists, and economists to help drive our mission.
Can RAGCED help my club get a Global Grant?
We do not provide the funds directly, but we provide the expertise to help you secure them. Our members help you conduct community assessments and write sustainable business plans that The Rotary Foundation is more likely to approve.
How does the Chapter use membership dues?
100% of dues go toward chapter operations, including website maintenance, organizing educational webinars, hackathon prizes, and administrative support for project vetting.
