Rotary District 5000 Foundation

Rotary District 5000 Foundation (FEIN/EIN 99-0339185) is the philanthropic arm of Rotary International District 5000 (Hawaiʻi). The organization pools donations from District 5000 clubs and donors to fund scholarships, local community projects, disaster relief, and international service initiatives aligned with Rotary International’s areas of focus.

The Foundation maintains active campaigns and grant-making partnerships with member clubs across the Hawaiian islands. In recent years it has played a visible role in emergency relief and community projects (for example the Maui Fires Relief Fund and Centennial Park–Waikiki efforts) and has published governance documents, a current Board of Directors roster, and active fundraising campaigns on its website.

Financial filings for the foundation show material changes in giving and grant activity over the last 2–3 years: the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024 reported approximately $3.3M in contributions and net assets of about $2.6M, and the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025 reflected elevated expenses related to grant-making and relief activities with year-end net assets around $1.0M. The EIN and tax-exempt status were verified against public tax-return records and the foundation’s own website.
