About FLOF

The Florida Opportunity Fund (FLOF) is a grant for service projects available only in the Florida District of Key Club International. FLOF can give clubs up to 2/3 the money necessary for service projects; however, schools must provide 1/3 of the amount they wish to receive. The amount of money you can get ranges from $100 to $1,000. Your club must be in good standing, meaning all Pride Reports submitted, complete OIF, paid dues, and active in service projects and divisional/district events.
