Rosie May Foundation
Key takeaways
- Rosie May Foundation names Nepal, Sri Lanka and the UK as its priority areas, and its themes are education, skills training, women's economic empowerment, family support, food security and poverty reduction, so a project that closely matches these is the clearest fit.
- Its published material gives no readable grants figure and no grant range, so the size of a realistic request cannot be judged from it; keep any ask modest and tied to a specific project.
- No application process is published, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown and ask about its process and timing before writing a full proposal.
- Its work in Nepal runs through local partners, SAHAS/NEPAL and ASHA/NEPAL, so explaining how your organisation would work with a local partner or reach families directly is useful.
- The published material does not say how competitive the foundation is, and no exclusions are stated.
