Synopsis
The U.S. Embassy Kampala Small Grants Office announces an open competition for registered organizations interested in submitting applications for the Ambassador's Special Self-Help (SSH) Program, which supports small-scale, community-based initiatives that promote self-reliance, foster development, and promise an immediate and dramatic effect on local communities.
Projects should also include significant community contributions in cash, labor, or materials. The purpose of the program is to support different types of community-initiated and community-led capacity-building projects, including development projects (schools, health clinics, wells), as well as projects that increase employment and help communities to develop marketable skills (village craft centers, agricultural cooperatives), and projects that address concerns such as women's empowerment.
For the SSH Program in 2021, U.S. Embassy Kampala will prioritize projects that address gender equality and women's empowerment. All applications will be accepted, but priority will be given to those two focus areas.
