Africa Impact Finance Initiative Grant giving portfolio aims to provide fair, transparent and equitable distribution of funds of up to £1500 GBP to projects across Africa. The number of grants given per round will depend on the availability of funds.
Opportunity Details
We are the brainchild of the Rhodes Scholar Africa Forum (RSAF).
Previously RSAF raised funds from fundraising events with Rhodes Scholars in residence, distributing approximately two grants a year to successful applicant organisations in Africa.
Africa IFI hopes to expand the scope of this contribution.
We hope to harness our privileged access to Rhodes alumni networks, Oxford’s international community, as well as an international public of socially responsible organisations, corporations and individual donors, to raise funds and to distribute them to community-oriented projects on the African continent in accordance with our carefully designed constitution.
The grant giving portfolio aims to provide fair, transparent and equitable distribution of funds of up to £1500 GBP to projects across Africa. The number of grants given per round will depend on the availability of funds.
