FOAL funds the inclusion and rights of people with visual disabilities across Latin America, with a strong emphasis on education, rehabilitation, employability, and access to assistive technology. Its portfolio shows a clear preference for partnerships with established disability organizations, education actors, and national or regional resource centers rather than one-off small grants. A distinctive priority is support for women and girls with visual disabilities through FOAL Violeta, especially those facing intersecting vulnerabilities such as indigenous identity, displacement, or gender-based violence.
Primarily partnership-based and programmatic, with an open and permanent call evaluated monthly for general projects and a separate annual FOAL Violeta call for targeted gender-focused initiatives. Supports organizations and public/private entities working in Latin America, often through associated resource centers, consortia, and institutional agreements; funding appears oriented toward implementation, capacity-building, and service delivery rather than open-ended unrestricted grants.

Use the permanent call if your project serves people with visual disabilities in Latin America and is tied to inclusion, education, employment, rehabilitation, accessibility, or organizational strengthening; expect monthly review rather than a single deadline. For FOAL Violeta, tailor proposals specifically to women and girls with visual disabilities and highlight intersectional vulnerability, especially indigenous, displaced, or violence-affected groups. Strong proposals will likely be partnership-oriented, operationally clear, and aligned with national or regional disability service infrastructure.
