On May 11, 2022, the Digicel Foundation was pleased to launch the 6th edition of its Konbit Pou Chanjman campaign (Come Together for Change). This initiative sought to award 15 local organizations with USD10,000 each to implement a community project in one of the country’s 10 departments. Organizations desirous to implement a project were invited to apply for a grant in the following areas: education, culture, inclusion, access, livelihoods, and disaster prevention.
714 applications were received and 66 organizations were selected to advance to round two. Field visits were made across the country to meet the organizations and further evaluate the projects submitted. On September 6, 2022, 25 organizations were selected to participate in the last round and regional finals were held during the week of March 7, 2023. At these events, 16 organizations were awarded a grant of USD10,000 each to implement their projects.
