Funding Criteria

In evaluating organizations and their proposed projects, there are a number of important factors that we look out for, including that:

• women are involved in leadership roles;
• people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) are represented in the organization's management, including the Board;
• the community served is involved in planning and/or implementing projects;
• the organization's governance measures are solidly in place;
• the organization is able to manage the funds they have requested;
• the proposed project is viable;
• there is a solid management structure;
• beneficiaries do not face discrimination (including gender, religion, serostatus, etc.)
