What the grant funds

Please see https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-embassy-julia-taft-fund/ for the full announcement. Overview Each year, the Julia Taft Fund awards grants of up to $25,000 USD per country with the goal of addressing gaps in refugee assistance, by issuing grants to local nonprofit organizations for quick-impact, time-limited projects. Grants are intended to address one-time needs or interventions, and/or respond to needs not addressed by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), or other non-governmental organizations (NGOs) receiving U.S. government funding. The activities of the proposed project should not be directed to sustained, long-term programs. We encourage community-based organizations (CBOs) and NGOs to submit proposals. Please note the beneficiaries of your proposed project must be at least 50 percent refugees, internally displaced persons, vulnerable migrants, and/or stateless persons, and are not intended to directly address the needs of undocumented/illegal migrants in general. For FY2022, the U.S. Embassy may award multiple grants of up to $25,000 each, pending availability of funding. Priorities for FY2022 This year, we encourage applicant organizations to submit proposals that include at least one of the following angles: Newly Displaced Persons (new for FY2022): including activities that provide time-bound assistance to refugees, asylum seekers, and/or vulnerable migrants who were newly displaced into Thailand during calendar years 2021 or 2022. For example, proposed quick-impact projects could include targeted humanitarian assistance to vulnerable displaced populations in border or urban areas, or meet the immediate food, shelter, sanitation/hygiene, and/or health needs of displaced persons difficult-to-access areas. We will not consider proposals that 1) focus on assistance to the nine refugee camps (i.e. temporary shelters for displaced persons) along the Thailand-Myanmar border, or 2) projects that duplicate the work or services provided by UNHCR, other UN agencies, or other U.S. Government assistance programs. Stateless Persons (new for FY2022): including activities aimed at resolving, reducing, or preventing statelessness.
