About this grant
The program goal is to increase the level and impact of individual philanthropy in the Central and Eastern European region and globally. To this end, The Funding Network, a giving circle based in the U.

More specifically, the grantee will provide information, technical assistance, and mentoring and facilitate regional and international contacts and exchanges among its partners. Established in London in 2002 by a group of private philanthropists with the mission to increase the level, scope, and impact of charitable giving, the grantee now works in 20 countries around the world. In the past grant period, the grantee supported eight partner organizations in five Central and Eastern European countries to stage events in 30 cities, expanded its programs with new partners in five countries, and published an impact report about its work in the Central and Eastern European region.
