What is a Mini-Grant?

0

A Mini-Grant is a special category of small grant which has the following specifications: • Maximum grant period: 90 days • Maximum grant amount: not to exceed the JD equivalent of US$25,000 • Allowable purpose: Beneficiary activities which are consistent with both beneficiary and Aqaba Community and Economic Development Program objectives but which are not necessarily part of a Strategic Plan (overall long-range plan for beneficiary’s organization). These activities will tend to be one-off, stand alone activities • Other specifications: The award of Mini-Grants will not necessarily preclude the Beneficiary from also receiving other grant types • Allowable costs: Allowable costs include, but are not limited to: • Seminars, workshops, conferences and other events; • Technical assistance services; • Training courses, including the cost of trainers, course materials, site costs, etc.; • Publications and publication related costs such as layout, printing, distribution, etc.

Mini-grants are designed to support the Foundation’s core grantmaking objectives by providing grants for one-time equipment and/or program material purchases that are not readily addressed by the Foundation’s annual grant cycles or RFPs.
