Mission & Focus Areas

The organization states its mission as “Charitable community activities.” Its filing describes community service grants to local nonprofits and governmental entities benefiting Bainbridge Island and North Kitsap County; international service grants to local and international projects in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Ukraine focused on humanitarian aid, water, sanitation, health, and financial assistance; and youth and vocational assistance for school lunches, community projects and awards, work experience, and exchange programs.

The 2025 grants included projects in affordable housing, scholarships, museum expansion, library solar panels, social services, climate adaptation, preschool facilities, recreation, and emergency supplies. These purposes describe the reported grants, not a separate statement of the Trust’s overall priorities. Among the recipients, Housing Resources Bainbridge describes its mission as conserving land for permanently affordable housing and building a more equitable, inclusive, and healthy community. The Bainbridge Island Historical Society says it preserves and shares local stories and operates a historic museum and library. EcoAdapt says it works to create a robust future in the face of climate change.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, the Trust reported 31 grants totaling $459,015. Grant amounts ranged from $488 to $100,000, with a median of $6,567. The largest reported awards included $100,000 to Housing Resources BI for an affordable housing project, $79,800 for education scholarships, and $65,000 to the Bainbridge Island Historical Society for museum expansion. Other notable awards included $25,000 to Bainbridge Public Library for solar panels and $15,000 each to Helpline House for new furniture and EcoAdapt for a sea-level-change exhibit.

The Community Grants program funds capital items and projects with a useful life of at least three years; it does not fund operational expenses or items with a projected lifespan under three years. Eligible applicants include qualifying charitable organizations, organizations with a fiscal sponsor, Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District, and Bainbridge Island School District #303 through Bainbridge Schools Foundation. Applicants must support Bainbridge Island or its wider community and be based in Kitsap County or be a chapter located there. The program excludes political and religious activities, with a stated exception for nonreligious, unrestricted public-service projects by religious organizations. It accepts unsolicited applications: the website says eligible organizations may apply, and allows one application per organization per year. Requests may range from $1,000 to $15,000. The listed 2026 application period is September 15 through October 15, 2026, at 5 p.m.

The Large Grants (Huney) program supports major capital projects, generally at $25,000–$100,000 or more. Applicants begin with a letter of inquiry; those invited may submit a formal proposal. The guidelines ask applicants to explain how the grant would leverage additional fundraising, why Rotary funding matters to project viability, and how ongoing maintenance will be funded. Projects should have a functional lifespan of at least 10–25 years. The program’s stated priorities include creating a community asset, serving disadvantaged residents, improving quality of life, and protecting the environment. It accepts unsolicited letters of inquiry. The 2026 letter-of-inquiry deadline has passed; the listed deadline for the next cycle is September 15, 2027.

These figures describe that program’s awards and are separate from the Trust’s 2025 filing-year grant total.
