To Interested Applicants:
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), through DAI is pleased to announce applications for funding to implement Feed the Future Tanzania Advancing Youth
project. Feed the Future Tanzania Advancing Youth (AY) aims to implement activities that will empower young people in Tanzania to enhance their employability, entrepreneurship, leadership,
community engagement and healthy life skills. Interventions for this project will be implemented in Iringa (Kilolo, Iringa DC, Mafinga and Mufindi), Mbeya (Kyela and Rungwe DC) and Zanzibar
(Unguja and Pemba).
This annual program statement (APS) outlines the priority areas for application, expected results, funding type, application process, procedures and format required for submitting concept notes and applications.  All applicants are encouraged to propose a mix of approaches and/or activities that will achieve the results indicated under the project’s objectives, outputs and technical scope.
Note that two types of grants will be awarded:
1. Small grants: An amount not exceeding $25,000 will be awarded to small, community or youth led entities that are still in their infancy.
2. Major Grants: An amount not exceeding $150,000 will be awarded to large organizations with previous experience in implementing projects in the related activity area and showing tangible results and impact. This category includes non-governmental organizations, faith-based organizations (FBOs), CBOs, academic institutions, private organizations, professional associations and consortium of the above.

The grants facility will enhance income-generating potential across agricultural and other rural value chains and facilitate access to information, skills, and opportunities to ensure their success
in business start-ups and sustained employment. Feed the Future Tanzania Advancing Youth is both market and demand driven; it connects youth with opportunities while providing them with
life skills, an entrepreneurial mindset, and basic job seeking capabilities and skills in areas demanded by private sector employers.

AY focuses on developing and delivering training and mentoring in the three ‘L’s – Life skills, Livelihoods, and Leadership - designed to offer youth choices and to facilitate their journey along a pathway to richer, fuller, healthier and productive lives. The approach capitalizes on youth’s passion, energy, and positive attitude. Furthermore, the program builds youths’ capacity to contribute effectively to the economic development of Tanzania by creating examples of lawful, responsible, and accountable leaders. The program is focused on increasing incomes and employability skills across agriculture value chains and includes the recently initiated industrialization program.
