Dear ladies,

Our web site (www.iwcm.md) is getting updated. Meanwhile, I would like to share with you the information on the call for Concept Paper for the next yearly round of Grants Proposals. Please forward this information to all interested parties. 

I hope very soon the same info will be available on the web site. 

In case you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

All the best,

Ema Kusakatova

IWCM charity work is all about making a positive difference in Moldova by devoting our resources and time to causes we believe in. We like to support causes which bring positive social returns and/or deal with economic empowerment of women. Our grants have funded a wide range of projects throughout the country which benefit those in need, especially women and children.

Our charity work can only happen thanks to the help and generosity of our local and international sponsors, supporters and members and we remain deeply grateful for their assistance.

IWCM has three major fundraising events which raise money for the club's charity work: the Winter Bazaar, the Night of Art and Fashion Shows. From 1997 to 2012 the IWCM has raised more than $241 000 supporting numerous projects and charitable causes.

If you would like to apply for an IWCM Grant, please download and complete the project form and return it by 25 August 2013 to: iwcmg...@yahoo.com.

Please note that:

1.Only those applicants whose project concepts are approved by IWCM will be invited to make a full proposal.

2. Project concepts (and full proposals, if invited) will be evaluated on the following criteria:

• Benefit of the project to women and children in Moldova
• Durability / sustainability of the project
• Degree to which the project leverages community initiative, involvement and ownership

4. IWCM will not generally fund food, salaries, or operating costs

5. No beneficiary group will receive more than one grant in a two year period

6. Funds will be available after the Winter Bazaar 2013 until the 30^th of May 2014.

In attachment please find the Project Concept Form.
