Description
1) Objective
Rise Against Hunger (RAH) is currently seeking applications for the provision of food assistance for meal, nutrition, and medical programs under the NL program. They partner with organizations around the world to provide food and other life-changing assistance to those in need. These partners support a variety of development programs that work with members of the community to meet their basic needs and create long-term, sustainable change. Potential partnerships are evaluated by the level of need within the community, the sustainability of the organization’s program, its ability to import and manage in-country distribution of food assistance, as well as conduct monitoring and evaluation on the use and impact of RAH meals within their program.
Rise Against Hunger provides 40-foot shipping containers of meals to our meal distribution partners around the world. Every fall, RAH develops a shipping schedule based on partner needs and estimated meal availability for the following year. Our current partners fill out a food request form each year explaining programmatic needs for the following year. They are also given the opportunity to suggest a scale up option in the event RAH has a surplus of meals. RAH’s supply of food is limited; therefore, we cannot approve every request we receive.
2) Eligibility
All candidate organizations will be reviewed to ensure that they are honest, responsive and reliable. The partner must be established with the ability, expertise and resources to properly handle a container shipment and provide quarterly data and reports on programs, inventory and use of donation. Donated meals are to be used to promote development and provide for immediate food needs, not to support political or theological agendas. Efforts are made to ensure that assistance is not being provided to or used to support any oppressive, destructive, or exploitative group(s) or individual(s). The partner also needs to have the ability to store and secure a minimum of 20 pallets of meals. Each pallet is approximately 4ft by 4ft with a height of 7 feet and weighs 2,185 lbs. Storage must protect the meals from water, pests and theft. The meals will need to be secured during distribution as well.
3) Location
They work in: Burundi, Cambodia, Czech Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Dominican Republic, Ghana, Haiti, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Italy, Kenya, Liberia, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Mali, Moldova, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Singapore, Somaliland, South Africa, South Sudan, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Uganda, Ukraine, Vietnam and Zimbabwe.
4) Budget
There are no indications on grant sizes.
5) Application
Please note that an application form is the first step of the partner selection process. RAH staff will follow up with applicants to gather additional information and clarify responses to questions. Please consider that applications are accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed semiannually in March and October each year. Semiannual reviews may take several months. The Potential Partner Interest Form is available on their website.
