Small Grants to support Small-scale Community-based Initiatives in Tanzania

SEARCA launches Travel Grants Program

Deadline: 1 July 2019

The U.S. Embassy Dar es Salaam has announced an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out projects through the Ambassador’s Special Self Help (SSH) Small Grants Program.

SSH program is a grassroots grant assistance program that funds grants for small development activities that generate public awareness of U.S. foreign assistance efforts but that fall outside the structure of other established U.S. assistance projects. The program is intended to be flexible and allow the Embassy to respond directly to requests from local communities for assistance with small community projects that have immediate impact, and further mission priorities and objectives. Equally important, the Special Self-Help program is structured to encourage communities to be self-reliant and undertake similar activities on their own in the future.
