Alto The
Fundación Comunitaria de Oaxaca (FUNCOM) is a non-profit, civil
organization legally constituted in 1996. FUNCOM
would carry out a project to promote cooperation among business,
government, and community organizations, and to mobilize and channel local
resources to sustainable grassroots development projects. To
accomplish these two objectives, FUNCOM would establish a local
development fund to leverage resources to finance small projects in the
areas of education, health, and income generation and employment.
FUNCOM would also provide training and technical assistance to Oaxacan
community organizations in many topics, including needs assessment,
planning, project management and administration, and resource mobilization. This
project would result in a local development fund, which in turn would
provide grants for education, health and income-generation development
projects to benefit children and young people and micro-regional
development projects, and to strengthen the management capacity of
community organizations. The project would improve the quality of life and
meet the basic needs of over 720 low-income families.
