About Global Support and Development
Global Support and Development’s recent grantmaking is built around emergency systems: disaster response, preparedness, risk reduction, and the operational capacity of public and regional agencies. A large share of its work goes to government and coordination bodies in the Caribbean, Central America, and Pacific island settings, with grants aimed at strengthening response structures rather than project-only activity. One clear example is its support for the Honduras Secretary of State in the Office of Risk Management and National C, which received multiple grants in 2025 for disaster response and disaster preparedness. The foundation also backs regional coordination and professional development, including the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency’s Young Professionals Program and technical advisory work. Beyond institutional capacity, it funds search-and-rescue and humanitarian logistics partners, including a grant to Clark County Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue in Washington. The pattern points to a funder focused on preparedness infrastructure, cross-border coordination, and rapid response capability in emergency-prone regions.
What Global Support and Development Funds
In disaster preparedness and response, Global Support and Development funded the Honduras Secretary of State in the Office of Risk Management and National C with grants for disaster response and disaster preparedness. For regional coordination, it gave the Pacific Islands Association of Non-governmental Organizations support both for participation in the FALE Pacific annual meeting and for disaster response, tying convening work to operational readiness. In the Caribbean, the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency received support for its Young Professionals Program and for a technical advisory committee meeting, showing an interest in both pipeline development and governance. The foundation also supports emergency-response institutions directly: Panama Sistema Nacional De Proteccion Civil received funding for disaster response, while Saint Lucia National Emergency Management Organization was supported for disaster response preparedness.
How Global Support and Development Gives
Typical grant size sits at $16,248 at the 25th percentile, $28,526 at the median, and $54,075 at the 75th percentile, so many awards are in the mid-five-figure range. The recent record shows repeated support to some recipients across 2025, including the Honduras Secretary of State in the Office of Risk Management and National C and the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than isolated awards. The foundation is not a fund for individuals and does not make program-related investments. Its recent pattern also includes general support alongside purpose-specific grants.
