Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions

How long does the funding application review take?
Our team reviews applications within 3-4 weeks. If shortlisted, you will be contacted for additional documentation. Due to high volume, we cannot provide individual feedback to unsuccessful applicants.
Can I call or visit to follow up on my application?
Please avoid calling, visiting, or sending multiple follow-up emails. Our small team needs to focus on reviewing applications and securing sponsors. We promise to contact you via email once there's an update.
How many times should I apply?
Apply only once. Multiple applications for the same project or individual will not speed up the process and may actually prolong review time.
Do you provide direct cash funding to entrepreneurs?
No. Funds are never disbursed directly to applicants. We pay approved service providers on your behalf for compliance registration, equipment, and brand assets. This ensures transparency and proper use of funds.
How is support determined?
Support is primarily determined by the availability of funds from our sponsors and partners. We also consider the viability and potential impact of your business idea, alignment with our mission, and completeness of your application.
How do I get my D-Series donor certificate?
After making a donation, complete the D-Series registration form. You will receive your unique D-series reference number and recognition certificate via email within 5-7 business days.
