We are looking for partnerships with African-based social innovators, that are:
- NGOs that are officially registered (and thus comply with local regulations).
- NGOs that have a bank account in the country they work (and thus had a KYC-check).
- NGOs that can show past annual financial reports.
- African NGOs that are locally-led, locally-found and locally-based, especially those from Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Tanzania or Uganda. Diaspora organisations can apply, when supporting a locally-led NGO in the country where projects take place.
- NGOs that work for and with community members living below the poverty line.
- NGOs that have activities running on one or more of these 3 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):
- No Poverty (SDG1)
- Zero Hunger (in combination with climate-smart solutions) (SDG 2)
- Quality Education (SDG4) other than primary education
- NGOs with an annual income less than €100,000 (thus donations through iMPACT direct make a significant difference for the NGO’s budget).
- NGOs whose initiators started from a great idea for local projects, with own or local resources and can show achieved impact but fail to get (sufficient) resources from granting donors.
- NGOs that are (or are willing to):
- Engage project participants in the planning, implementation and evaluation of projects.
- Show how their work improves lives (facilitated by our application survey, project form and reporting format).
- Are cost-efficient (i.e. budget/lives improved).
- Are transparent by sharing project information, stories and reports on our website and socials.
- NGOs that value partnerships based on equality, trust and transparency, in which we work as a team towards shared objectives and vision, with shared efforts.
