Deadline Date

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.

We are women in different subsectors of Agriculture. We don't have a formal license but Chamber of commerce has started to be our umbrella to have a sort of association where in the long run to secure individual licenses. Anyway due to luck of technical training and exposure to dairy farms, hoticulture, food processing like peanut butter, cheese etc, poultry farming, flower planting and arrangements, fattening, beekeeping,etc we reamained behind and we need your assistance in these aspects. Would you please give us a hint on how to write the application so that we get fund if you find us to be eligible. Look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

the page is complete, I have all the information I need and I really appreciate the work that Mama Cash is doing. I would like to encourage you to continue doing more and more especially for women group/organisation from Africa. there is alot of women's rights violation and women in these area rare know that they have rights. women need to know their rights for them to be able to solve problems they face.
