General information and requirements
Organizations that are interested in applying for funding from SELAVIP should consider the following criteria for the presentation of their projects:
It will be a requirement for all organizations wishing to participate in this call to be registered in the "Registration of Organizations of Selavip" on February 28.
Before creating a project, "Active" Organisations should review and update their data, in case there have been changes to their current Registration. Any problems with the System should be reported to SELAVIP's e-mail address selavip.foundation@gmail.com.
All projects must be sent online through the SELAVIP management system. No applications will be received by other means.
SELAVIP only considers the financial contribution of ONE constructive solution per family (See monetary contributions table for construction solution).
It is desirable that the project generates community processes and innovative policies based on the experiences developed by each organization, the sustainable development objectives delivered by the UN and that local or national governments wish to support.
It is important that families which have been considered to benefit should participate in all preparatory phases and the subsequent execution of the project, in order to ensure that these initiatives respond to the real needs of the families that it is desired to support.
The resources delivered by SELAVIP are a free contribution for each family and must be used exclusively for the execution of the selected project.
At least 90% of the resources provided by SELAVIP should be used only for the acquisition of materials. In the case of regularization of the land, 100% must be spent by the project that allows its processing before the relevant institutions.
SELAVIP reserves the right to reduce the requested amounts and the number of constructive solutions to execute according to budget availability.
SELAVIP will favor those proposals which present cost-effective housing or health systems and also projects where other sources of financing are involved without neglecting the quality of the solutions to be built.
SELAVIP will not consider projects whose total cost is less than USD 25,000 (except projects related to land regularization).
In these last calls from SELAVIP inflation and other international considerations that affect nations have directly influenced material prices, so the NGO must take into account this variable since, once the project is selected, It will not be possible to modify the number of beneficiaries and solutions to be built that have been approved.

Organized Communities, non-governmental organizations and local religious entities in developing countries, legally constituted and non-profit, may send their creative and daring projects from April 15 to June 15 of each year.
Applications can only be made on the dates of each call and must be sent online through the SELAVIP Projects Management System

On our WEB page, interested parties can find the ONG Registration form template, Application form template and the Application background for each call (the latter can change with each call).
Are excluded
Infrastructure projects, such as hospitals, orphanages, schools, churches, training centers or income-generating projects will be declared inadmissible.
Projects that involve the use of materials that contain Asbestos in the construction process will be declared inadmissible.
Selection
All proposals received within the application dates will be evaluated with quantitative and qualitative criteria, objectively, by a team of professionals who will determine if a project is admissible or not. SELAVIP, based on the evaluation, will select those that best reflect the fulfillment of the priorities and objectives that the foundation seeks.
The final selection is made by the SELAVIP board in Belgium, there the evaluation is considered again and the number of projects is adjusted according to budget availability.
It is important that organizations consider that in some cases it is only possible to partially finance an initiative, so that their proposal, once selected, may require adjustments in the number of families and the amount of the contribution, which will be previously informed to them before signing some agreement.
If any organization rejects the proposed changes and does not wish to continue, the projects that are on the waiting list may be selected.
Approved projects will be reported at the end of October or beginning of November of each year in:
