How can I receive funding from the USAID Mission?

The majority of USAID's work is done through organizations selected by a competitive procurement process in keeping with the U.S. Government's procurement policy. Activities for which implementers are sought are designed specifically to achieve U.S. assistance objectives laid out in the U.S. Assistance Strategies, available elsewhere on this web site. Procurement opportunities are listed on USAID's home site, and interested parties can sign up to be notified of new procurements via e-mail. Infrequently and under limited circumstances, unsolicited proposals are funded.
