The Volunteer Partnership Fund The Volunteer Partnership Fund: is an annual pool of funds to which CUSO volunteers can make applications to support projects and activities that directly support the partners with whom they work.
For many years cooperants and CUSO partners have expressed the need for small amounts of project money that could increase the impact of their work in the field. CUSO has seen the positive impact made by enterprising cooperants that independently fundraised for their projects, and we have decided to offer systematic support.
With the support of individual Canadians, and directed by volunteers working throughout the world, we hope to begin investing these project funds in 2008, to help our global partners implement long-term solutions.
Testimonials about the needs and uses of these funds from project proposals are available here.
Congratulations to the recipients of the 2007 Volunteer Partnership Funds. Only a certain amount could be approved, over 60 applications were unable to receive funding due to a limit of resources. In 2008 we aim to raise more funds to resource more great projects! |
