GRANTS
FOR
NON GOVERNMENT
ORGANIZATIONS
According to the World Bank, an NGOs (Non-Governmental Organization)
are "private organizations that pursue activities to relieve suffering,
promote the interests of the poor...or undertake community development.
" Funding for NGOs can come from governmental and non-governmental
sources. Most funding is for specific development projects, although
funds may also be awarded as recognition for past work.

SMALL
GRANTS
FOR
NGOs
Funding organizations recognize victims of human trafficking, spread of
disease and lack of development in emerging countries as some critical
global issues. To raise awareness of global issues, organizations award
small grants to non-governmental organizations and other groups. Funders
hope that innovators and entrepreneurs of NGOs may be an influence to
communities and government programs.
UN Trafficking Fund
Some trafficking victims face forced labor, sexual exploitation and act
as child soldiers. The United Nations leads a Trust Fund for Victims of
Human Trafficking to help victims rebuild their lives. United Nations
Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) administers the small grants and awards
the funds to qualified non-government organizations (NGOs). The amount of
the award varies as contributions to the fund continues to grow.
Small Grants Programme
The Small Grants Programme encourages local people and communities to
address global environmental issues and raise public awareness. Acting
as an environmental resource, community and non governmental
organizations may qualify for a grant up to $50,000. The program hopes
that with NGOs' involvement with the environment they will be a positive
influence on government programs.
The USAID Regional Development Mission Asia (RDMA)
Malaria is prominent in Cambodia, China, Lao, Burma, Thailand and Viet Nam.
The USAID Regional Development Mission Asia (RDMA) awards small grants to
NGOs that can provide information and technical support to contain malaria
or improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment in community health
centers. The amount of the grant varies based on availability. Qualified
NGO programs run over a five-year term.
Development Innovation Ventures (DIV)
Progress in a developing country relies on innovation and processes. USAID's
Development Innovation Ventures (DIV) awards small grants to encourage NGOs,
entrepreneurs, innovators and businesses to develop solutions for saving costs
and methods of development. The grant seeks innovative new tools, new approaches
and processes developed by organizations to reach communities on wide scale. DIV
determines the amount of the award.

WHAT
ARE
NGO
GRANTS?
NGO grants are specific kinds of proposals for the dispersal of money
to major organizations. NGOs, or non-government organizations, are
often not-for-profit organizations that are set up to operate outside
of a regional or national government. These organizations operate for
various reasons, many of them associated with health and safety,
quality of life for local citizens, or progressive goals for an economy.
When these groups receive funding from a government or other source,
this is often characterized as an NGO grant.
Although some NGOs may in rare cases provide their own grants to third
parties, NGO grants are largely recognized as grants made to NGOs. Many
of these are made by governments that recognize the use or utility of
NGOs within their nation or region. NGO grants can be secured in various
ways, including a formal application to an existing government program.
In many cases, individual NGOs may be assisted in grant research by a
series of third-party groups. Many of these disperse detailed grant
information to NGOs, including where programs are set up, and how NGOs
may apply. Many kinds of grant research also involve the missions or
objectives of the grant program, or the actual reasons for which the
grant program was set up. These sorts of missions and objectives include
economic goals such as poverty reduction, ecological goals like
sustainable use of resources, or humanitarian goals like progress in
human rights or demographic equality.
NGOs may also be assisted by individual grant writers when they seek to
secure NGO grants. In some cases, the relationships between the NGO and
a grant writer are constrained or bound by certain laws. NGOs may be
restricted in the ways that they can pay these grant writers for the
work that they do, where, in many areas of the world, paying a grant
writer through commissions is not an acceptable strategy.
Grants generally enable NGOs to continue or expand their operations.
Since these organizations frequently operate without profit-centered
divisions, they rely on government or private funding. The success of
an NGO in securing grants may determine whether that group continues
to work or closes down. This is why NGO leaders pay so much attention
to the various existing grant programs and protocols for securing NGO
grants.

HOW DO
NGOs
GET
FUNDING?
A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a non-profit, citizen-based
group that functions independently of government. NGOs are organized
on local, national and international levels to serve specific social
or political purposes.
As non-profit organizations, NGOs rely on a variety of sources for
funding projects, operations, salaries and other overhead costs.
Because the annual budget of an NGO can be in the hundreds of millions
(or even billions) of dollars, fundraising efforts are important for
the NGO's existence and success. Funding sources include membership
dues, the sale of goods and services, private sector for-profit
companies, philanthropic foundations, grants from local, state and
federal agencies, and private donations.
Individual private donors comprise a significant portion of NGO funding.
Some of these donations come from wealthy individuals - such as Ted
Turner's $1 billion donation to the United Nations, or Warren Buffett's
pledge to give 10 million Berkshire-Hathaway class B shares to the Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation (valued at more than $31 billion in June 2006).
Many NGOs, however, rely on a large number of small donations (rather than
a small number of large donations).
Despite their independence from government, many NGOs rely heavily on
government funding in order to function. Some governmental NGO funding
may be viewed as controversial because the funding may support certain
political goals rather than a nation's development goals.
