About Matching Grants

Matching grants (previously called standard grants) are large-scale humanitarian projects that address unmet needs. The project must serve a large population. Grants awarded are between US$10,000 and US$100,000.

Matching grants typically provide funds for capital construction and equipment. Typical projects include mobile health units, centers for people who are disabled or blind, eye clinics, major medical equipment, nursing homes and schools in developing countries.
