Presentation transcript:

Somewhere between your exchange, your school, or your job, you had an idea. That crazy, brilliant, genius idea is going to change your community and our world. But first, you need a team to help you, and you need funding. Through AEIF, we help our alumni fund their dream service projects.

Because Your Ideas Matter The State Department created the Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF) in 2011 to support alumni initiatives that promote shared values and innovative solutions to global challenges. Proposed projects must embody one of the AEIF themes. In 2014, 66 grants of up $25,000 were awarded to alumni teams to support their public service projects.

What are the AEIF Themes? Civic Participation Conflict Resolution Access to Education Global Health Awareness Empowering Women and Girls Entrepreneurship and Youth Employment Climate Change and Environmental Protection Social Inclusion/Alternatives for Vulnerable Populations

What is AEIF? The AEIF competition provides small grants to teams of past and current participants of U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs to carry out public service projects that utilize skills and knowledge they have gained through their exchange experiences.

AEIF Alumni Teams To participate, alumni must be members of the International Exchange Alumni (IEA) global online community and form teams of at least five IEA community members.

Are alumni the main implementers of the project? Is that clear in your proposal? Alumni led Will a panelist reading your proposal understand the goal of your project? Have you made the purpose of the project clear? Clear Goals How will you implement your idea? Have you described the steps you will take to implement your project? Implementation Steps What are the anticipated results of this project? Does your proposal clearly convey expected results? Measurable Results Ingredients for a Successful AEIF Project Proposal
