Community Small Grant Initiative

The Community Small Grant Initiative (CSGI) was developed as a way to support community based organizations already working in the Chilumba area. These small scale grants ($50 to $500) are given to groups with a proven dedication to their mission.

All community groups are welcome to apply, but they must demonstrate the grant will ultimately contribute to the well-being of the community. The grants can be used for many types of projects or programs, but priority is given to groups with a proposed entrepreneurial activity.

“The goal of this initiative is to grow a collaboration between the different actors in the community working towards human centered solutions. We believe in sharing resources and knowledge to better our social environment. Together, we can make a bigger impact.”

While access to primary education has seen some improvement in Malawi, there are still significant barriers to retention and comprehension amongst students. There are many stakeholders committed to improving the situation for young learners, however there are many schools that still fall through the gaps when it comes to governmental and outside funding.

“The Collective’s goal is to help identify areas we can supplement resources to fill these gaps in services.”

Summary

Some projects that our education program has implemented to address the specific needs of several primary schools are:

  • Provided notebooks to primary learners
  • Fast track the implementation of a vegan school feeding program
  • Funded teachers’ salaries for underserved primary schools that were lacking teachers.
