我介绍的全球绿色基金（简称GGF）是总部在美国科罗拉多州的一个基金会。美国有很多基金会资助经过注册的组织和需要大量资金的项目，而全球绿色基金认为很多发展中国家的基层组织需要的经费资助并不很多，而且这些国家中的很多组织注册比较困难，所以GGF主要的一个角色就是帮助这些正在起步的环保社团，给予一些小额资金的支持。在美国他们规定小额资金的范围是从500美元到5000美元，其实在很多发展中国家看来这样的资金已经不算小额资金了。有些学生团体觉得这么多一笔钱不算小额资金所以不敢申请。这是由于美国的标准相对较高，根据中国的情况资金的标准降低了一些，从200美元到4千5至5千美元之间。基金的架构是在全世界范围内由5个知名的环境组织组成全球顾问委员会，他们推荐资助的对象没有局限。另外他们还在一些发展中国家和地区建立各个地区的顾问委员会，他们认为真正在地方工作的人才了解当地的需求。而且他们主要资助的地区是那些没有受过资助的地区，那些没有受过关注的人群。
基金会在中国建立了一个顾问委员会，有6个成员。顾问委员会做的工作是非常具体和琐碎的工作，比如收集表格分发表格汇款等具体的工作。我们希望多听大家的意见，也希望大家能推荐更基层的团体申请GGF的资金。这个基金是5年前才起步的。最初的工作只有一个人在做。包括像贴信封，印材料等等。现在基金的办公室已经有了8个工作人员。我今年1月份去过。这个基金会的理念是把更多的资金给最需要的人群，因此基金会本身的行政开支是非常少的。我去的时候是5个工作人员，4个全职，一个兼职。只有10平米的办公面积，只够4个人办公，第五个人来的时候只能站着办公。而他们一年资助的金额达到600万美元。我很感动。我想这样的组织是真正支持性的组织，自己很节约，而把最大的资源资助给最需要的人。
如果大家来自小规模的组织，那么小额资金会起很大作用。如果还没有得到过GGF资助的话，我想是我们的工作还没做到家，需要更多地了解各地的情况和大家所做的工作。也希望大家更多地帮助我们寻找更需要这些资金的人群。其实申请GGF资金特别容易。只要你们是真正关心环境的一群人，不管是不是注册的，如果你们觉得这种小额资金是特别有用的，那只要申请就会得到资助。因为GGF的宗旨就是帮助那些基层的真正需要资助的人群。

Mission and Overview
使命和简介
Global Greengrants Fund supports grassroots groups working for environmental justice and sustainability around the world.
全球绿色资助基金在全世界范围支持为环境正义和可持续发展而工作的基层团体。
Our grants help fund grassroots action in some of the world's most despoiled and impoverished places where other sources of support often are not available. We believe that that grassroots groups are key to solving some of the world's most intractable problems and halting the cycle of poverty, powerlessness and environmental devastation.
我们的资金用于资助世界上最贫困地区的基层组织开展活动，通常那里没有任何支持资源。我们相信这些基层组织是阻止贫困恶性循环和环境破坏这些世界上最困难问题的关键。
To identify prospective grantees we rely on a network of nearly a hundred volunteer advisors around the world. Local scientists and activists, leaders of small networks or coalitions, teachers, journalists, engineers, physicians and international environmental leaders have teamed up with Global Greengrants Fund to identify worthy groups and projects. These volunteers allow us to capitalize on the expertise of people who know first hand where the most exciting and promising work is going on.
我们依靠全世界约100位志愿顾问鉴别资助申请人。当地的科学家、社会活动家、企业家、教师、记者、工程师、医生及国际环保组织的领导和我们一起判断申请项目是否有价值。我们的志愿者给我们提供哪里有令人激动和前景光明的工作的第一手资料。
Why We Support Grassroots Action
We believe that grassroots efforts are key to solving many of the world's environmental problems. Local people are highly aware of environmental degradation around them, and they are usually the ones most vulnerable to its ravages.
Grassroots groups often are in the best position to identify and address root causes of degradation, and their moral authority is essential for building broader public involvement and support. Although they almost always lack financial resources, grassroots groups can be a powerful force for environmental and social progress.
