Description
The Ambassador’s Special Self-Help program is a grant program that provides small-scale assistance to Ghanaian communities. The program is highly competitive, and funding is limited. The purpose of this grant program is to provide assistance to small, community-led projects that promise to have an immediate impact on Ghanaian communities. The project must be initiated by the community and should benefit the community by increasing income or improving living or social conditions.
Key points to consider:
• The project should be a single activity that helps to improve basic economic or social conditions at the community level.
• The project should be sustainable and not require continued support after the one-time contribution from the Special Self-Help Program.
• Substantial community participation is required during the project.
• The project should be within the ability of the community to operate and maintain sustainably.
• All projects must be completed within one calendar year of the grant award date.
