Small Grants Programme

The service delivery and field-based interventions were carried out through launching of four Small Grants Projects (SGP) in partnership with NAACC’s member NGOs working at grass roots level.

The themes of the mentioned projects were Border Traders (one project), Jail Inmates (one projects) and Out of School Youth (two projects). These projects directly benefited 1300 individuals and also benefited to an estimated population of 13,000 indirectly.
The amount provided to these projects was more than 6 million PKR and covered the three vulnerable thematic areas of Border Traders, Jail Inmates and Out of School Youth in Northern Areas.

The SGP projects have covered interventions like awareness raising, primary health care, STI treatment, referral services, condom distribution, behaviour change communication (BCC), peer education (PE) and voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) sessions regarding fight against HIV and AIDS in the region. As a result of all these efforts made through SGP projects; the key stakeholders of the region such as immigration department, customs, media representatives, govt officials, Northern Areas chamber of commerce and industry, youth, religious leaders and general masses of the region have been greatly sensitised and become aware about the severe impacts of HIV and AIDS.
