ASA-NGO Partnership Build-up Program

ASA always stands ready to empower national small and emerging NGOs so that they are able to play a vital role in poverty alleviation. ASA provides these partner NGOs with skilled manpower, technical support and also with loan funds under soft terms. Under this program, ASA has 34 partner NGOs all over the Country.

ASA ensures soft loan funds from the donors to the local organizations. It is due to ASA’s earnest efforts that CORDAID-Netherlands has been extending financial support to 12 partner NGOs. Through this, ASA also tries to ensure its assistance to poor people of the remotest areas of the country. All of the partners NGOs are also building their capability to get access to other funds.
