FOMA Grants
Through the Charitable Trust Fund, FOMA makes small grants, normally up to £1,000 to any one organisation in any one year, for a variety of projects in Malawi where we believe our contribution can make a difference. Grants are usually oriented toward social, educational and healthcare projects but we will consider any project that will improve the welfare of Malawians or further the objectives of the Association.
FOMA has funded over 255 projects since 1990, totalling over £225,000. Our projects page includes examples of organisations that FOMA have recently supported.
All applications must use the official proforma available to download. Projects will be assessed against the funding criteria by the Grants Committee and successful applicants notified by email.
There are two funding periods each year. A closed round in December for invited organisations only; and an open round in August (submission deadline is 31st) for general applications from eligible organisations working in Malawi.
