The Small Grants Fund of Foundation Ensemble represents 15% of the total annual endowment and it is intended to support actions implemented and led by small organizations.
Unlike the Foundation’s Programme Fund, the Small Grants are available for organizations from any part of the world.
The maximum amount of money that will be allocated per project by the Foundation is 30,000 €. The Foundation can provide up to 50% of the total budget.
Proposals must meet the prequalification criteria:
- The project holder is a small organization.
- The project must be concrete and improve the livelihood of the target populations and take into account the environmental dimension.
- The project responds to the needs expressed by the population and/or partners on the field.
- The budget is clear and the role of each partner is identified.
The Small Grants Fund has two categories of funding:
- Small Grants Animal Biodiversity
- Other Small Grants for Water and Sanitation and Sustainable Development
Each of these grants has different application forms and has to be submitted separately.
The deadline to submit applications for Small Grants Fund is 11 March 2012. For more information, visit this link.
