SWO-docu is a Swiss private foundation that supports community-based development projects in Latin America, especially in Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia. Its funding centers on practical, sustainability-minded work in education, health, small-scale livelihoods, and environmental protection, with a clear focus on families in extreme poverty, children and youth with special health needs, migrants, and vulnerable seniors. The foundation appears to favor projects that strengthen local self-sufficiency and deliver direct benefits at the community level.
Supports community-oriented projects through a dedicated grant program, likely on an invite-or-review basis rather than an open, highly publicized application process. Grants appear to be program-specific and focused on practical, measurable initiatives in selected countries, with an emphasis on sustainability and local impact; grant size and frequency are not publicly specified in the available data.
