How RIBI is adding value by assisting clubs/districts to obtain funding for projects
T
he EFG (External Funding
Group) team is dedicated to helping and supporting applications for funding beyond RIBI. A resource of Rotarians that is
available to help clubs/districts prepare grant applications and to seek out potential funding sources, including those that may be available from central government such as the Department for International Development, the Big Lottery and such like.
The EFG is looking to support projects that: a) have local ownership in the developing country;
b) are sustainable projects; c) are 'large' and would benefit from significant external funding e.g. projects over £100,000;
d) are existing projects but will be started in a new geographical area; e) are recognised by RIBI.
If you think you have a project that could fit, then why not let us know? We will need the following information, based on these criteria, and ask clubs to send their information to the Secretariat via the email address,
efg@ribi.org n
What is the project? (a brief outline) n Where is the project?
n
What is the Rotary connection in RIBI and the host district?
n The anticipated global budget? n The start date of the project?
The group is looking at funding opportunities from many different providers so there is no deadline involved. Please allow some time for the group to correspond with you about your project. It may have to look at a number of funding opportunities to see what best suits the project’s dimensions. n
