Mama Cash supports projects from women's groups and women's organisations all over the world. The fund seeks:

  • projects that are focused on groups of women who are relegated to a marginal position within a certain context, for example: girls, women of colour, migrant and refugee women, HIV/AIDS-infected women, indigenous women, sex workers, lesbians, and women with a disability;
  • projects with bold, innovative strategies, responsive to changing circumstances, ready to take advantage of strategic opportunities, and prepared to share the risks inherent in the work of resisting and transforming oppressive structures and systems; and
  • innovative feminist and women's rights organisations, networks, and funds led by and for women and girls.


Applications from The Netherlands and Europe, as well as the Global South (Asia and the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean) and the former Soviet Union, can be submitted throughout the entire year. Applications must be completed in Dutch, English, French, or Spanish. Mama Cash will only assess applications that meet her criteria and are properly completed.

Mama Cash mainly funds organisations and networks with annual operating budgets under 200,000 euros.

Mama is the best

You have shown me great passion to save the needs of all women. I requested booklets and information on Mama' Cash and you sent them to me in Zimbabwe. Not only is the page perfect but Mama Cash staff are also efficient and very supportive.

I FIND VERY USEFUL AS I FEEL THAT I AM ELIGIBLE FRO THIS GRANT

It is really useful page and I am happy that I fins it.
Keep on the good work

Women in Africa are highly marginalised. The lack the neccessary tools such as capacity building trainings to enable them have knowledge that can assist them to stand on their own. With your continued asssistance, i hope a barren tree of hope will one day bear nice and admirable fruits. Thank you so much for what ihave read though i have come come across any women group in Zambia that has been funded by your organization so that i could see how they are doing your grant and has it has changed their way of life. However, continue with your good and recommendable job. Lydia Banda, Chipata, Zambia.
