February 23, 1998
VOICE International announces the publication of:
"Funding for Civil Society: A Guide to U.S. Grantmakers Giving in
Central/Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States."
Funding for Civil Society is a user-friendly, up to date, detailed guide
to U.S. foundations and grantmaking organizations which directly fund
civil society in Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent
States. The directory will enable nongovernmental organizations in the
region to increase their chances of finding funding, allowing them to
enhance their programs and develop direct ties with U.S. funding
organizations.
The directory will also serve as a useful tool for embassies, U.S.
non-profits, government agencies, multilateral institutions, plus
funders themselves that are working within the region.
Funding for Civil Society features:
*Current information - all research was completed between June and
December of 1997,
*56 easy to skim entries highlighting program areas,
country/regional focuses, and types of funding available,
*Contact information including contact person, web site, and
email address,
*Detailed program guidelines and grant application information
included to save time and money when communicating with potential
funders,
*Information confirmed by the funding organizations,
*Convenient index by country, and
*Appendices on proposal writing and corporate funding.
