Deadline: 31 May 2022
The Child Health Foundation (CHF) is now accepting proposals from registered non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for the 2022 Innovative Small Grants Program to improve the health and well-being of new-born infants during their first year of life.
This is a time of high risk for babies, and they believe that local groups may have innovative ideas on improving the health, survival and wellbeing of these vulnerable infants. Proposals for other types of projects will not be considered.
This year, the focus will be directed toward improving the lives of infants during the first year of life or (if appropriate to the specific project) the first few months. Infants are most vulnerable during this early time period and CHF believes that small innovative projects can make a major impact on child health in diverse settings.
