ABOUT SPARK MICROGRANTS
Spark Microgrants believes in a world where everyone lives with dignity and determines their own positive future. Decades of prescriptive aid have sidelined the poor from the very programs meant to uplift them. We believe families in every village should have the opportunity to design and launch local projects of their own. Founded in Rwanda in 2010, Spark has codified a unique Facilitated Collective Action Process (FCAP) providing facilitation and funding to over 800 villages and reaching more than 500,000 people. The Spark FCAP is a series of ‘town-hall’ style weekly meetings, in which women, men, young, and old, plan together for their community’s future. Each village elects a leadership committee, establishes a village savings account, and launches a project of their choice. Members receive training on financial management, transparency, leadership, village planning, and advocacy. Each village then receives US$8,000 US$15,000 in seed funds and additional management support to turn their project ideas into reality.
Spark works in collaboration with government and civil society to scale the FCAP as the model of choice to advance social and economic development, improve lives, and secure lasting change. Spark is now active in 800+ villages across six countries, improving the lives of over 560,000 people.
As a team, we share a set of common values that shape how we work. These are:
