Support for Small Associations
Small associations are crucial to Round Table International (RTI) and to Round Table in general, as they help expand the movement, uphold its core values, and ensure grassroots impact. These associations, often in emerging or smaller regions or small countries, foster local engagement, allowing more young men to participate in fellowship, service, and leadership development. They also help preserve Round Table’s traditions while adapting them to regional cultures. Additionally, small associations serve as entry points for RTI’s global growth, strengthening international connections and ensuring that the movement remains inclusive, dynamic, and future-focused. By supporting these groups, RTI nurtures the next generation of leaders and changemakers.
Travel grants
Part of the RTI Budget is allocated to a travel fund for officers of small Associations. This is dedicated for the travel costs to attend the RTI Half Year Meetings and the RTI World Meetings. This would ensure that these associations are represented. The refund amount is proportionally given to how early the flights or transport is booked. Claims must be sent no later than 28 days after the event.

Whatsapp group
A whatsapp group has been created for representatives of small associations to support each other.
