Support locally owned projects through a controlled funding pathway
Register your funding interest so MDF can match your priorities with approved community needs, projects, budgets, KPIs, reporting and assurance requirements.
Tell us who you are
Provide donor or institutional details, funding interests, indicative range and relevant due-diligence information.
Select an appropriate opportunity
Discuss approved local projects, communities, sites, programme results or multi-year outcomes aligned with your priorities.
Define responsibilities
MDF and the donor agree scope, budget, funding conditions, reporting, meeting cadence, disclosure permissions and verification requirements where applicable.
Fund accountable implementation
Funding is connected to approved activities, responsible teams, local stakeholders and project controls.
Follow progress
Authorized donor accounts can access agreed programme, finance, reports, meetings, evidence and verification information through the MDF Partner & Impact Portal.
Funding should strengthen local ownership—not replace it.
MDF’s intended model connects community-defined needs, approved project design, responsible local participation, controlled funding, measurable KPIs, evidence, reporting and appropriate verification. Donors and impact-focused partners support the pathway; communities remain central to the outcome.
Local impact grows through long-term relationships.
