Fwd: New Funding Guide to Grantmakers Giving in the CEE/NIS
Region


---------------------------------------------------
From: "Bethany L. Mancuso" <[email protected]>

VOICE International announces the publication of:
 
"Funding for Civil Society:  A Guide to U.S. Grantmakers Giving in
Central/Eastern Europe and the Newly Independent States."

Funding for Civil Society is a user-friendly, up to date, detailed
guide to U.S. foundations and grantmaking organizations which directly
fund civil society in Central and Eastern Europe and the Newly
Independent
States.  The directory will enable nongovernmental organizations in
the region to increase their chances of finding funding, allowing them
to enhance their programs and develop direct ties with U.S. funding
organizations.

The directory will also serve as a useful tool for embassies, U.S.
non-profits, government agencies, multilateral institutions, plus
funders themselves that are working within the region.

Funding for Civil Society features:
 
* Current information - all research was completed between
June           and December of 1997,
* 56 easy to skim entries highlighting program areas,
  country/regional focuses, and types of funding available,
* Contact information including contact person, web site, and
  email address,
* Detailed program guidelines and grant application information
  included to save time and money when communicating
with                 potential funders,
* Information confirmed by the funding organizations,
* Convenient index by country, and
* Appendices on proposal writing and corporate funding.
 
           ** Order Information **

The guide is available from VOICE International for US$30 (shipping
and handling included).  For orders of 2-5 copies we offer a 10%
discount; for 5 or more copies we offer a 15% discount.  Please

indigenous groups in the region, we are placing it on our web site at:

region groups honor our request and pay the U.S.$30 fee for
