Spark MicroGrants offers a dynamic model for community organizing and granting, empowering under-resourced communities to develop their own project proposals. By collaborating with local facilitators, often university students or NGO leaders, Spark guides communities through a series of meetings to create well-developed proposals. Once proposals are ready, Spark provides funding through microgrants of around $5000, ensuring that the solutions come from within the community rather than being imposed from the outside. This approach not only fosters local leadership but also drives sustainable development, making Spark a unique player in the social impact space.
