The TEEEM Foundation is accepting applications for its 2026 Community Impact Grant Program, offering grants to nonprofit and charitable organisations developing sustainable, community-led solutions. Eligible organisations in Africa can apply alongside organisations from other regions.
The programme supports locally informed initiatives across education, health, empowerment, entrepreneurship and community development, with grants ranging from $5,000 to $30,000 depending on the scale and maturity of the proposed work.
Funding Available
The Foundation offers three main funding levels:
- Community Grants — $5,000–$10,000: For local projects and grassroots initiatives.
- Growth Grants — $10,000–$20,000: For organisations seeking to expand programmes that have demonstrated results.
- Transformational Grants — $20,000–$30,000: For larger initiatives with potential to deliver sustainable, long-term community impact.
Organisations may request amounts outside these ranges, although awards can be funded either fully or partially.
