These small grants will hopefully have a big impact in supporting the local agency and activism of people in the region. We will continue to look for other resources to support local struggles. We have begun a dedicated Partners’ Work page on our website that will profile the actions by people in defence of their dignity and that of their communities.

ACT Ubumbano received over 250 grant applications in response to its recent call for proposals. Each application is reviewed and discussed thoroughly by the team, and this takes time, sometimes more time than anticipated. The small budget needs to stretch so that as many social justice actions as possible are supported, but the ZAR700,000 available will not reach even half of the applicants. Everyone will receive formal communication about the outcome of their application. We humbly ask you to be patient as we process all the proposals.
