proud to announce another grants program. We are looking to provide small
grants of between $200 and $400 USD to youth who have inspiring ideas to
make a difference in their community.

ideas of former projects, as well as to get to know the values advocated by
FD.
The project must be managed by youth, and be completed within a three month
period after receiving the grant. Applications must submit reports to the FD
team monthly along with photos. Deadline for applications is May 30, 2010.
Projects should be run by young people, be innovative and effective and

both at community and large-scale levels. The projects are to encourage the
active participation of youth in the development of a culture of peace and
conflict resolution in their communities. The project should be completed
