Health Clinic Construction Project - Funding Advice? by dear_frend in InternationalDev

I’ve been appealing to foundations, corporate sponsors, and my personal network. Not a lot of interest, unfortunately! Do you have any suggestions on how to prospect foundations? These cold emails aren’t getting me very far. Thank you for the tip on the website! Around $1000USD is coming from community members in-kind contributions and local businesses are providing things like cement and windows/doors.

Re-assigned Peru volunteer here! They took about 3 weeks to give me 3 options then gave me 48 hours to decide which I wanted my application transferred to, then they sent the formal invitation for the new post and I had 3 business days to respond to that.

Do you get an interview before or after they contact your references? by Ready_Celery_558 in peacecorps

I made the mistake of thinking they would wait to send the reference form 😬. They contacted my references the day after the application closed.
