Programs
Disaster and Crisis Response
CAF America actively seeks partnerships with disaster relief and resilience building organizations in high-risk areas to ensure we have vetted charities eligible and working on the ground during times of crisis.
One of the most challenging aspects of disasters and humanitarian crises is the need to act quickly with limited information. CAF America has the ability to grant funds to validated charities, getting charities the funds they need right when they need them. CAF America can also work with you to build out preemptive strategies for the regions where you have a vested interest.
The International Grantmaking Symposium
The International Grantmaking Symposium (IGS), hosted by CAF America, has become the preeminent forum for our fellow practitioners, corporate foundation colleagues, advisors, and attorneys to come together and learn the latest rules and regulations governing cross-border giving.
The IGS aims to fill a gap in the sector by offering a training specifically tailored to the needs of professionals dedicated to advancing international philanthropy. We focus on rules in the US, as well as country laws impacting the ability of foreign nonprofits to receive funding from outside of their country’s borders.
Expedited Grantmaking
Our Expedited Grantmaking Program is an efficient, time-effective way for donors to support international philanthropy while minimizing the administrative burden on recipient organizations.
As a part of the program, CAF America leverages our global network and partners in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Mexico, Argentina, and South Africa to distribute qualifying grants within those countries domestically. Our partners work with the local recipient organization to complete due diligence requirements, eliminating potential language barriers and streamlining the grantmaking process. You can view our current partners below.

Have you received a grant from CAF America through the CyberGrants Disbursements Solution? CAF America works with CyberGrants, a Bonterra company, to administer this program.
