MedAccess Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- MedAccess Trust's grant funding focuses on overcoming barriers to access to health products in low- and middle-income countries, and it also supports health education and research, so a grant writer should check that the project addresses healthcare access, health education and research, or healthcare market barriers.
- The annual report shows $718,212 awarded in total, but that is a total rather than a grant size, and no grant range is stated, so ask the contact shown before setting a figure.
- No application process is published, so getting in touch is the sensible first step rather than submitting a formal bid.
- Its grant process includes due diligence, reporting and monitoring, with potential clawback and repayment, so an organisation should be ready to meet those requirements.
- Nothing published says how competitive funding is or when decisions are made, so treat timing as unknown until the contact confirms it.
