About Project Concern International
Project Concern International’s recent giving is led by large program-support grants, including a $9,963,845 award to Global Communities Inc in 2024 and a $3,309,230 grant to Cooperative Housing Foundation in 2023. Those awards point to a funder that works through major implementing organizations rather than individual recipients, with project-based support as a clear pattern in its grant records. The foundation’s public profile and topic tags align with a portfolio centered on global health, nutrition, food security, WASH, economic development, and humanitarian assistance. Women and girls are also present in the record through a dedicated gender-equality grant. The 2025 filing year shows continued activity, including another large program-support grant to Global Communities Inc and a smaller award to American Institutes for Research. Across the recent grants list, the foundation’s support appears concentrated in institutional partnerships and thematic programming rather than a wide spread of small awards. That mix helps identify Project Concern International as a funder that channels resources into direct service and program delivery, with the grant record emphasizing implementation capacity and specific issue areas over open-ended philanthropy.
What Project Concern International Funds
In global health and related service delivery, Project Concern International gave $19,172 to American Institutes for Research in 2025 for program support. That sits alongside the foundation’s stated focus areas of global health, nutrition, food security, WASH, economic development, and humanitarian assistance. Gender-focused work appears as a separate line of giving. In 2023, the foundation awarded $148,601 to Dalberg Design LLC for “HER - Gender Equality & The Empowerment Of Women & Girls,” linking the grant record to its topic taxonomy around gender equality, women’s rights and advocacy, and gender-focused program delivery. The larger awards in the file are framed as program support to implementing organizations. That pattern suggests the foundation favors project-based funding within established programs rather than unrestricted giving across a broad set of causes.
How Project Concern International Gives
Typical grant size is highly skewed upward: p25 is $148,601, the median is $2,886,059, and p75 is $3,309,230. The recent record includes one very large award at $9,963,845, which helps explain why the median sits in the multi-million-dollar range. The grant list shows repeat support to the same organizations across different years, including Global Communities Inc in 2024 and 2025, and a prior grant to Cooperative Housing Foundation in 2023. Project Concern International is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or program-related investments. The recent grants are framed as program support and project-based funding.
