About Counterpart International
Counterpart International Inc. is defined by implementation-heavy grantmaking that supports its own program work, especially education, food systems, and governance. A standout recent grant went to Rahman Safi International Consulting Rsi for research and monitoring, evaluation, and learning support for implementation activities of the ASP program, signaling how central technical oversight is to the foundation’s work. Other large awards show the same pattern: Sesame Workshop received support to develop curriculum and prepare implementation and scale-up for 285 schools in the Kolda and Sediou regions, while Creative Associates was funded as a leading partner for curriculum development and education capacity building across multiple years. The foundation also backs governance and resilience work, including awards to Dai Global LLC and Viamo Pbc for social contract and resilient governance activities. In the education portfolio, it has supported after-school tutoring with tablets and McGovern-Dole food-for-education programming. The recent grant list shows repeated use of partners over time, suggesting ongoing program relationships rather than isolated awards.
What Counterpart International Funds
Education is one of the clearest threads in the grant record. Counterpart International Inc. awarded Creative Associates $471,717 in 2025 for curriculum development and education capacity building, building on earlier awards of $438,949 in 2024 and $461,392 in 2023 for the same work. The foundation also supported Imagine Worldwide with $99,601 in 2025 for after-school tutoring with tablets and another $80,000 in 2024 for the same activity. In food systems and child nutrition, World Vision Inc received $195,934 in 2025 for the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program - Sukaabe Janngo II. Governance is another recurring area: International Center for Not-for Profit Law received $112,254 in 2024 for Promoting Advocacy & Rights (PAR), and Viamo Pbc received $230,955 in 2024 for Resilient Governance in Niger Activity.
How Counterpart International Gives
Typical grants cluster in six figures, with a p25 of $83,234, a median of $115,916, and a p75 of $221,977. The recent record also shows repeat funding relationships across multiple years, including Creative Associates, Dai Global LLC, Viamo Pbc, International Center for Not-for Profit Law, Virginia Tech University, and Regent-type university partners. That pattern points to sustained program implementation rather than one-off philanthropy. The organization does not fund individuals and is not listed as making program-related investments. Its Business Opportunities page is the stated route for partnerships, sub-grants, subcontracting, and contractors, and the opportunities page accepts unsolicited approaches.
