Contribute

How can you collaborate with Fons Català’s projects and campaigns?

If you wish to contribute financially to Fons Català’s cooperation projects or emergency campaigns, please see some clues below:

Local Administration

Partner local bodies can make financial contributions to projects and emergency campaigns (Humanitarian Action and Emergencies).

In the case of development cooperation projects, they all need to be financially supported by at least one partner city council. Administrations can make contributions to projects opened by a different local body, thus joining forces to improve the impact of the actions. You can find the list of projects open for funding in the project browser.

In the case of emergency campaigns, city councils and supra-municipal bodies can make financial contributions to campaigns that are open for funding.

If you are interested in contributing to any project or emergency campaign as an administration, please contact us at fonscatala@fonscatala.org or by calling (+34) 93 412 26 02.
