International charitable organizations not registered in the U.S. are required to complete due diligence as prescribed by the Grants Committee prior to receiving a grant award if selected.
- This due diligence will continue to ensure that the grant partners are performing their charitable work in a transparent and accountable manner while meeting registration requirements with local governments.
- Information to complete the due diligence should be easily accessible by the nonprofit and ordinary in nature. There is no cost to the nonprofit for completing the due diligence review process.
