Early literacy funders
Foundations and funds focused on foundational reading, phonics instruction, or structured literacy programs in low-resource settings.
Good fits
Funders we'd be glad to meet.
East Africa education
Institutional donors with existing grant programs in Ethiopia, Oromia, or the broader East Africa region focused on school-age children.
Girls' education
Funders specifically interested in reducing the dropout gap, improving completion rates, or improving school completion for girls in primary education.
Capacity-building grants
Foundations interested in supporting small nonprofits building toward their first proof cycle - with named costs, published updates, and a model we can repeat.
How to introduce us
Three steps, five minutes.
1
Download our materials. The donor packet has everything a program officer needs - program overview, model, financials, and the evidence behind the approach.
2
Forward or CC us. A one-sentence email is enough: "Here's a program I've been following - I thought you might want to see it." CC info@biftuspark.org.
3
We take it from there. We'll follow up directly, answer questions, and send a full materials package. We'll keep you in the loop on what happens.
What we offer funders
A reporting plan they can track.
Every institutional funder can see what the grant paid for: tutor roles, child counts, reading level gains, and the annual report. No black box. No generic reports.
