The CART Fund provides funds for cutting-edge research to cure Alzheimer’s disease. CART started in 1996 with Rotarians voluntarily emptying their pockets and purses of change at weekly meetings.

One hundred percent (100%) of donated funds go to cutting-edge Alzheimer’s disease research. As of May 2016, the CART Fund has awarded $5.8 million dollars in 34 grants to recognized US research institutions. All administrative expenses of the Fund are paid from interest earned from invested contributions.

The Fund is governed by a Board of Trustees with representatives from the Rotary districts that support the program. The Fund is chartered as a nonprofit organization under the laws of the state of South Carolina.
