The Webinar Video on “How to Raise Funds from USAID” is now available online.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is a major source of funds and partnership opportunities for NGOs around the world. Despite this, many NGOs often do not apply for funding with USAID because of the complexity and highly competitive nature of the USAID grant system. The funding guidelines can be difficult to understand, instructions are complicated, and the application form can be difficult to follow.
This video will help NGOs identify and apply to USAID request for applications and grant opportunities.
