Regarding funding, NGOs generally seek opportunities with high grant value, overlooking several small grant opportunities. However, a small grant can be a helpful stepping stone for accessing other small and possibly more significant grants in the future. Grassroots NGOs are best positioned to understand their local issues; therefore, more prominent donors support them by investing through small grant funds. These small investments support a broader change movement and contribute significantly toward development. Why you should apply for Small Grants?Flexibility and offering core, unrestricted supportEasily accessible to grassroots groups that have little or no access to fundingUncomplicated application systems and quick turnaround timesBuilding relationships and trust among donorsWell curated and balanced grant size
