An Important RFP that could Benefit Community Based Organizations Providing Servicecs to Latino and other Migrants.
Please visit the National AIDS Fund to find an important RFP that could benefit community based organizations providing services to Latino and other migrants. The National AIDS Fund will award 20 - 30 grants in three categories:
Organizational Support;
Program Support; and
Policy and Advocacy.
The average grant size will be $45,000. An emphasis will be placed on reaching CBOs that have strong linkages to marginalized, at-risk, and underserved populations, which includes public health, social justice, and faith-based organizations that may not have HIV/AIDS work as their primary mission and may not access traditional HIV/AIDS funding sources.
This is a tremendous opportunity to provide funding to grass roots organizations serving Black and/or Latino populations. Latino communities now populate the area known as the Deep South and there are organizations struggling to provide HIV prevention and care services in a culturally responsive manner to these communities. These grants can make a real difference in the survival of these communities in frequently complex local situations which call on leadership to make a difference. Please disseminate this information to any partners you have in the Southern states.
