Our Programs
CBO Partnership Program
GPFD understands change makers in our partner communities are already doing important work but require organizational support to operate more effectively and attract additional funding. We partner with grassroots East African organizations to accelerate locally-led change by assessing and strengthening organizational health. We work with small yet motivated community-based organizations (CBOs) to assess their strengths, needs, and goals; evaluate how GPFD can provide value and impart new skills; and then develop a work plan with clear objectives and timelines for the partnerships.

Featured Project
Arkaria Community Centre, Tanzania
Global Partners and local leaders from Arkaria Village have a long history of advancing community-led initiatives in Tanzania. Led by Alais Morindat, the Arkaria Community Centre is developing local solutions and helping pastoralists gain the knowledge and skills to address the environmental, economic, and social justice challenges that disproportionately impact their communities while also honoring and celebrating traditional ways of life.
