Deadline: 08-Mar-2024
The U.S. Embassy in Madrid, through the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), is pleased to announce the availability of a funding opportunity to support organizations assisting refugees in Spain.
The Julia Taft Refugee Fund is an initiative by PRM to respond to critical, unmet needs of refugees. Established in 2000, the Julia Taft Refugee Fund intends to meet gaps in assistance by issuing grants to national or local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for quick impact projects to meet critical needs not addressed by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), International Organization for Migration (IOM), or other international organizations and NGOs.
Funding Information
- Grants of up to $25,000
Eligibility Criteria
- This opportunity is open to public or private non-profit organizations registered in Spain, such as business associations, foundations, and civil society/NGOs with programming experience in refugee affairs. Government institutions and for-profit or commercial entities are not eligible to apply. While international NGOs (INGOs) are eligible to apply, preference is given to national/local NGOs. INGOs that apply should demonstrate close partnerships with local NGOs through the proposed project.
- Applicants must have organizational representation (i.e., an existing office) in Spain.
