About this grant
The project goal is to strengthen newly established and emerging community foundations in select countries and regions. To this end, The Funding Network, a giving circle based in the United Kingdom, will strengthen its network of community foundations and community foundation support organizations in over 30 countries in Africa, Europe and Latin America. The grantee will facilitate regional and international exchanges and will provide information, technical assistance and mentoring to its international 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 30 countries around the world. With previous grant funds, The Funding Network supported partner organizations in 16 countries to organize 50 events and raise over $770,000 for 156 social change projects with support from more than 3,500 donors.
