Global Fund for Women Offers Grants to Women's Groups Outside the United States
Deadline: Open
The Global Fund for Women (http://www.globalfundforwomen.org/) works
to strengthen women's organizations outside the United States by
providing small, flexible, and timely grants in general support
ranging from $500 to $15,000.
The fund supports organizations that demonstrate a commitment to
women's equality and female human rights; show concern about the way
women are viewed and view themselves in society; are governed and
directed by women; consist of a group of women working together (the
fund does not accept requests from individuals); and are based
outside of the United States. The fund accepts grant requests in any
language, and applications may be hand- written or typed and sent by
mail, fax, or email.
The Global Fund for Women also administers the Preston Education Fund
for Girls, which supports schools, teacher training and curriculum
programs, locally based community organizations, non-governmental
organizations, local women's associations and women's rights
organizations, and coalitions focused on the issue of girls
education.
See the GFW Web site for complete application guidelines.
