About
Call for
Proposals blog is an online initiative, working for the
sustainability of NGOs by increasing their access to donors, resources, and
skills. It uses technology to spread knowledge and increase capacity.
NGOs around the world all face unique challenges
in attracting and maintaining resources for their programs. Though development
funding is a multi-billion dollar pie many barriers prevent NGOs from
successfully vying for these funds. First, announcements of funding
competitions are fragmented all over the web and difficult to identify. Second,
competition is strong and the application process arduous. How can NGOs spend
less time fundraising and more time running programs?
This was the founding concept for Call for Proposals blog– to help reduce
these barriers for NGOs and practitioners at all levels, and of all sizes and
sophistication. Providing users with free alerts on funding availability was an
important first step. Starting out only a few years back with a trickle of
users, the website is now generating millions of page views.
