District Grants Administration

District 7040 has transitioned to using the ClubRunner Grants Module for the administration of District Simplified and District Matching Grants.

Access to the Grants Module in ClubRunner is only available after a club is fully qualified each year.

Clubs wishing to apply for these grants must use the module to:

• Enter their application details, once the club is fully qualified
• Submit receipts and project photos
• Complete their final reports

Support will be provided to participating clubs as the program rolls out.
