FUNDING

Micaia Foundation is an experienced grantmaker, having integrated small grants, matching grants, and seed funding in many programmes over the last 10 years. Our dream and intention have always been to use any future surplus generated by our enterprises to fund our own grants programmes. In the meantime, we rely on funding partners’ who provide funds that we can ‘re-grant’ to community groups and associations. This has been particularly powerful in stimulating community philanthropy, offering matching grants to encourage local resource mobilisation.
