Call for Proposals for Three-Year Grants

CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR THREE-YEAR GRANTS

Healing Across the Divides, an American not-for-profit organization (www.healingdivides.org) aims to improve the health of marginalized by supporting community-based interventions. We are pleased to announce a new call for proposals for NGOs/ Community Based Groups (CBOs) that measurably improves health within a community framework. Proposals must address health challenges, broadly defined, that are common in the community. 

We encourage applications for joint proposals between two CBOs serving two communities—one serving communities in the West Bank and the second serving “48” Palestinians within the green line. 

We do not fund direct medical care. We fund CBOs to improve care within a community context; these initiatives often involve engagement with the medical care. Please see our website for examples of the types of initiative we fund.  If a Palestinian proposal comes from Gaza, the community-based group in Gaza must have a West Bank partner. 

Available funds are a maximum of $30,000 (can be less and we welcome that) per year per CBO for three years.  Due date for preliminary one page proposal is September 15. Applications sent earlier are welcome and will be considered quickly. For more information or for any questions please contact: Nehad Fattah at [email protected].

We are interested in proposals which will result in:

Documented improved health status of the population in the context of empowerment of individuals and communities 

Increased awareness, on the part of policymakers and other interested parties, of the obstacles to improvement in the health of marginalized populations.
