About this grant
The program goal is to build the capacity of informal groups, grassroots nonprofit organizations, and community enterprises in southern Romania to engage in the development of their communities. To this end, PACT – Partnership for Community Action and Transformation Foundation will provide training, field consultancy, small grants, and networking opportunities to grassroots organizations whose activities address the local needs of marginalized groups. In addition, the foundation will document and share its experience in community and socio-economic development and strengthen its fundraising strategies. Past achievements include building the capacity of 54 community groups to develop and implement successful community projects, build coalitions, and mobilize local resources. As a result, participating organizations gained broader community support and improved the lives of their target groups.
