Opportunity Summary:
Ripple Effect: Lift a Girl, Raise a Generation is a U.S. Department of State (DOS) grant opportunity announced by the U.S. Consulate General in Chiang Mai to expand access to upper secondary education for underprivileged Thai girls who would otherwise be unable to attend high school. The program is framed as a community development and education initiative, aiming to create long-term, generational impact by keeping girls in school through a critical two-year period of upper secondary education.
The grant offers funding up to USD 45,000 under a grant funding instrument, with one award expected. The funded project is required to support at least 30 girls for two years of upper secondary school. Applicants that can show they will stretch the funding to support more than the minimum number of students, without reducing educational quality, are preferred. One example specifically mentioned is leveraging matching funds, suggesting the consulate is looking for proposals that bring in additional resources or partnerships to increase the number of beneficiaries and strengthen sustainability.
Eligibility is broad and includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations with or without U.S. 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories), and individuals.
