The U.S. Embassy Singapore’s Public Affairs Section is offering a Small Grants Program to strengthen U.S.-Singapore ties and cultural understanding.

Overview of Small Grants Program

U.S. Embassy Singapore is pleased to announce funding opportunities through its Public Affairs Section (PAS). Each year, the U.S. Embassy awards a limited number of grants to support activities and exchanges linking the United States and Singapore with the aim of strengthening the bilateral relationship and people-to-people connections. This notice of funding opportunity is valid for funding through September 30, 2022.

Proposals are accepted on an ongoing basis and will be considered pending the availability of funds. U.S. Embassy Singapore periodically convenes grant panels to make priority funding decisions, and the next submission deadline for priority review is April 30, 2022.

This annual program statement is our notice of funding opportunity for Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22), which ends on September 30, 2022, and program work must commence before that date to be eligible for FY22 funds.

Proposals should be submitted a minimum of two months before the start of the activity for which funding is being sought, but applications can be submitted anytime. The Public Affairs Section may request revisions or additional materials related to the application. Funding of grants is subject to the availability of funds.

Purpose of Small Grants

To support organizations or individuals that engage Singaporeans in activities that strengthen ties between the United States and Singapore or the region. All programs must include an American cultural element, or connection with American experts, organizations, or institutions in fields that will promote increased understanding of U.S. policies, perspectives, or values.

U.S. Embassy Singapore welcomes proposals that utilize digital platforms or other technological innovations that reduce in-person programs, or support in-person programs that abide by Singapore’s current rules regarding events and gatherings. While applicants are invited to submit proposals with in-person components, we encourage applicants to consider digital delivery components in support of engaging broader audiences when appropriate. 

U.S. Embassy is particularly interested in funding programs including but not limited to: 

• Academic and professional lectures, seminars, and speaker programs;

• Support open, inclusive, and diverse societies;
• Promote the U.S. higher education system; or
• Create understanding about U.S. policies, culture, and shared values.

Participants and Audiences
