Project Needs

Susila Dharma Projects are doing an excellent job, usually with extremely little money. Below is a list of funding requests and proposals from SD Projects around the world. They are listed in the order they are received from our members.

SDIA does not have the resources to independently verify all aspects of these proposals. We strongly recommend that prior to funding any project listed here, you consult with SDIA and members of the SD Network with experience of this project.

Please be sure to inform SDIA of any funds you allocate to a project. This way we, on behalf of the SD network, can track when the request has been met.

Project Needs Met: If you would like to review older requests for funding from the SD Projects, you can do so here.

The Grant Matrix is a spreadsheet that lists all the donations to the various projects over the last year and from which countries these have come.

You can download a Grant Request form here. For further information, or to explore co-funding with other SD nationals or donors, contact info@susiladharma.org.
