Kathmandu Kora 2018 calls for a proposal for a cause to support during the 2018 ride and raise funds through pledges subsequently. They are looking forward for proposals from the cycle fraternity and beyond. This small grant opportunity for Nepal is open to all NGOs in the country.

- A theme for Kora 2018 cause
- A brief synopsis of the project you will undertake
- An introduction to the team or organisation implementing the project
- Short / Long term benefits for the local community
