Current Peace Corps Albania Volunteers,

We are happy to announce our next open call for grant applications for Fall 2019. The maximum grant award is $400. Grants are available to all volunteers who have served for at least 6 months and are no less than 6 months from close of service. These terms ensure that volunteers have an adequate understanding of the needs of their communities and the feasibility of potential projects, and that all project activities may be completed prior to COS.

The FOA grants committee will review applications in the order they are received and communicate with applicants regarding requests for more information or proposal modifications. Applicants will receive a response from the FOA Board approving or denying all funding requests no later than September 2, 2019. Funds will be disbursed following applicants' completion of our terms of agreement.

Note: Proposals that do not follow guidance and appropriate naming conventions will not be considered. Please read all the instructions thoroughly. Volunteers seeking additional guidance on the application process may also email Jill Conway, the Grants Coordinator directly at jconway@friendsofalbania.net.
