Corporate agencies have welfare programs to provide financial support for various community development projects as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). But many of these programs are limited to those areas where these corporates are active and those where they think there is high potentiality for their products and services.
However, there are some international corporates which offer grants to NGOs without taking into consideration their commercial interests. In general, these corporates provide financial support to organizations in most parts of the world, including poor and developing countries. Many of them also have established exclusive foundations to support projects and programs for reducing poverty and improving the living conditions of the poor around the world.
Here is the list of these corporate foundations and grants. Some of these have both open and closed calls for proposals, which you can bookmark for your fundraising strategy.
- The Coca-Cola Foundation
- MTV Staying Alive Foundation
- The Zayed Future Energy Prize
- Nestlè Prize in Creating Social Value
- Allen Foundation Inc.
- Rockefeller Brothers Fund
- Monsanto Fund
- Charles Steward Mott Foundation
- American Express Foundation
- Ford Foundation
- The ReSource Award for Sustainable Watershed Management
- Toyota Environmental Activities Grant Programme
- CISCO Global Impact Crash Grant
- ViiV Healthcare Positive Action Grant
- Boeing Corporate Citizenship Programme

Hello,
we are a group of passionate and committed 9 young people (4 boys and 5 girls) in our finale year of study at Chancellor College of the University of Malawi in different programs. We have an initiative to start-up an organization named Centre for Child Development and Research (CCDR) and to that end we have submitted our documents for registration with the Malawian Government, NGO BOard, and CONGOMA. Currently, we are working in four program areas namely; Early Childhood development, Girl child education, Special needs education, and research and development.
“our vision is to see a Malawi where every child especially those in special circumstances have the opportunity to grow, and develop to their full potential by engaging families and communities in research and practice”.
We would like to find out if there can be some partners to help build our capacity in program management considering that we are just fresh from school with very limited experience apart from volunteer work we are currently doing in communities surrounding our beloved University!
Best regards,
Isaac Phiri, Executive Director for CCDR

Dear Director,
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for this opportunity, Association For Development–Assodev is a local NGO based in Tamale, Ghana, West Africa . Assodev is a legally registered NGO with the Ghana Registrar Generals Department and the Department of Social Wel-fare.

Our youth are the future leaders and their development is considered paramount to the whole nation.
We are currently working with the youth empowerment, equipping them economically, politically and socially to stand the test of time. We offer them training in ICT, computer, Mobile phone repairs, Masonry, Carpentry, Shoe making. Indeed we anticipate absorbing more of the idle youth by 2015. For now much emphasize is put on school dropouts, particularly the rural girl child who are the most vulnerable.
Currently we have over 100 youth on training and the results is absolutely remarkable. However, our major constraints are: appropriate accommodation facility of our own and initial kick-start capital for the trainees after the exercises.
Our mission is to build the capacity of the youth on various disciplines and set them up for economic emancipation. Our ultimate objective is to eradicate poverty or at best reduce it to an appreciable level by the 2015. We have made tremendous efforts through our own local contributions and from the Board of Directors as supplement.
We shall be most grateful if we could partner with you as your local representatives for collaboration to enable us source funding to support this remarkable program. In-fact it is for the development of the skills, knowledge of the very deprived, the underprivileged and the needy rural communities.
Assodev have the expertises who initiate viable activities but lacking funding opportunities to accomplish the set targets and objectives as a social Non-Governmental, Non-profit organization. We shall submit to your office any information you require in this circumstance.
We shall abide by the rules and regulations of your organization for the progress and success of both outfits and most greatly to assist the handicapped, particularly the poor rural youth.
I hope you will accede to our humble request as paramount.
Please accept my best regards.
