Grant Template
Project details
What we need
- Grant template outlining the organization’s mission, strategic plan, activities and budget
- Tips and suggestions on customizing grant template for specific grants
What we have in place
- We currently have a draft of a grant, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have other marketing material about the work we are doing in Mozambique, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,390 , allowing us to provide further education and training for 10 Mozambican teachers.
We have an unprecedented opportunity to truly make an impact in education for the nation of Mozambique. We are in a position to receive grant funding and so need help to prepare a grant. This project will help bring in the necessary funding to help design new curriculum and train Mozambican teachers.
Project plan
Our mission
To help a nation get itself out of poverty. We are working in Mozambique on an education initiative with a focus on curriculum development and teacher training, which includes technology.
What we do
Despite thousands of visitors spending, and corporations and countries investing billions of dollars in Africa each year, the reality of abject poverty remains as bleak today as it was 10 years ago. In 2007, CouldYou? was founded to address issues surrounding poverty in Africa and especially to find new paradigms for an African future not centered around receiving aid.
We focus our efforts on establishing and nurturing dynamic, global partnerships between forward thinking Africans and Westerners. CY’s goal is to effect growth and change by providing a forum for information exchange and sharing best practices as well as developing leadership among our participants and African leaders in order to collaborate on tackling issues of poverty.
CY is committed to ensuring participants become true partners, developing mutually rewarding relationships while respecting the integrity of each other’s work. Currently, our work is focused on education in Mozambique.
We are concentrating on finding effective ways to develop the country’s educational system, focusing on curriculum reform and teacher training in order to prepare a workforce.
We are building partnerships with western school districts, universities, teachers, individuals and businesses to partner with us in Mozambique, the 3rd poorest country in the world.
