GRANTS
We are part of a global anti-poverty movement that is rooted in a commitment to justice and an appreciation of the value of African experience. The challenges Africans face vary widely across communities, cultures, religions, traditions and countries. We believe that Africans themselves should have a full range of choices, and that Africans themselves know best how to determine their needs and propose solutions for lasting change. The way in which we do our work is as important as what we do. This philosophy is reflected in our flexible, respectful and responsive style of grant-making.
The Canada-Africa Development and Relief Agency (CADRA) makes grants to seed, strengthen and link African community groups based outside Canada working to address poverty issues that include:
- Ensuring Economic and Environmental Justice
- Advancing Health and Sexual and Reproductive Rights
- Expanding Civic and Political Participation
- Increasing Access to Education, Water and Housing
- Fostering Social Change Philanthropy
