Opportunity Information: Apply for BH 010 FY2024
The BOLD Small Grants Mentoring Program is a U.S. Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) funding opportunity run through the Embassy's Public Diplomacy Section (PDS). It is designed to support the BOLD network (Balkanski Omladinski Lideri, or Young Balkan Leaders), which focuses on empowering people ages 18 to 35 through leadership development and practical community projects. Rather than funding community projects directly, this specific grant funds a mentoring and capacity-building program that helps future small-grant winners strengthen their project plans and then successfully manage their awards over the full grant year.
This mentoring program is meant to complement two separate BOLD Small Grants Competitions that will be announced under different calls. One competition will be open to all BOLD members, and another will be reserved for BOLD fellowship alumni. Through those competitions, young leaders can compete for project funding of up to $15,000 to implement one-year projects centered on economic development and civic engagement. A key feature is that small-grant funds will only be disbursed to competition winners after they participate in a mentoring workshop delivered by the organization or individual selected under this mentoring-program grant. In other words, the mentor-grantee provides structured guidance first, and only then do the project implementers receive their separate award funding.
The main goal is to make sure the eventual small-grant recipients have the tools, skills, and ongoing support to deliver strong results and to grow into competent project managers and grant administrators. The selected applicant is expected to help grantees refine their project designs during an initial workshop, and then continue supporting them throughout implementation. This includes walking young grantees through the administrative steps required to receive and manage U.S. government grant funds, helping them solve problems that come up during delivery, and ensuring they understand and meet reporting expectations so PDS can track progress and outcomes.
The Embassy is looking for applicants who already understand how U.S. government grants work and who can act as responsible stewards of public funds. Just as important, the applicant needs to be able to teach and coach that knowledge in a practical way to young leaders who may be new to formal grant compliance, budgeting, documentation, and performance reporting. The expectation is hands-on mentoring that strengthens project quality and reduces the risk of implementation or compliance issues during the grant year.
Eligibility is broad within BiH. Non-governmental, non-profit organizations (including think tanks and civil society groups), educational institutions that are legally registered and based in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and individuals may apply. Applicants must show they can work across all parts of BiH, either on their own or through partnerships, which signals that the mentoring support should be accessible to grantees regardless of where in the country their projects are based.
In the published funding details, this is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina (CFDA 19.900) under funding opportunity number BH 010 FY2024. The application closing date listed is 2024-07-22. The award ceiling is $12,000, and the Embassy anticipates making one award, meaning a single organization or individual will be selected to design and deliver the mentoring program for the cohort of small-grant recipients.Apply for BH 010 FY2024
