The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief

The Ambassador's PEPFAR Small Grants Funds

The President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) Small Grants Fund is designed to assist communities and non-governmental organizations with projects that promote HIV/AIDS prevention and care for those infected with or affected by HIV/AIDS.   PEPFAR refers to the President's Emergency Fund for AIDS Relief, a five year $15 billion global presidential initiative to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS.

During the 2009-2010 funding cycle, only projects concerned with the care and support of Orphans and Vulnerable Children aged 0-17 years will be considered.  Projects with any other focus will not be funded.
