Description
1) Objective
The U.S. Embassy in Conakry, Guinea announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to support registered self-help groups, community-based organizations, non-governmental organizations, and certain educational institutions to develop projects that improve living conditions in their communities. Please follow all instructions below. Per 7008 restrictions, the U.S. government is prohibited from providing assistance to the Government of Guinea (including local institutions, such as schools and local government representatives) until a democratically elected government is installed.

• Small construction projects – school rooms, community centers, health facilities, foot bridges, housing for community-paid nurses or teachers, workshops, community Slaughterhouse grain storage, rural airstrips for hospitals, and school dormitories for distant students.
• Water-related projects – wells, latrines, pumps, bore holes, shower stalls and sinks, and fishponds.
• School equipment and supplies – desks, chairs, laboratory equipment, and library items.
• Communal construction equipment – brick-making machines.
