Additional Information of Eligibility:
All applicants must be legally recognized organizational entities under applicable law.
DCHA/CMM welcomes applications from many types of organizations including foundations, U. S. and non-U. S. colleges and universities, U. S. and non-U. S. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), faith-based organizations, U. S. and non-U. S. private businesses, business and trade associations, international organizations, civic groups, regional organizations, etc.
The following describes additional criteria for some potential partners.
U. S. and Non-U. S. Colleges and Universities: Qualified U. S. and non-U. S. colleges and universities may apply for funding under this APS.
USG and USAID regulations generally treat colleges and universities as NGOs, rather than governmental organization.
Hence, both public and private colleges and universities are eligible.
Non-U. S. colleges and universities in countries that are ineligible for assistance under the FAA or related appropriations acts are ineligible.
U. S. and Non-U. S. Non-Profit Organizations: Qualified U. S. and non-U. S. private non-profit organizations may apply for USAID funding under this APS.
U. S. and Non-U. S. For-Profit Organizations: Potential for-profit applicants should note that USAID policy requires that award funds may not be used for the payment of profits.
Also, forgone profit does not qualify as cost-sharing or leveraging.
However, if a prime recipient has a (sub)-contract with a for-profit organization for the acquisition of goods or services (i.e., if a buyer-seller relationship is created), fee/profit for the (sub)-contractor is authorized.
Although cooperation with, and endorsement of Applications by various units of USAID is encouraged, and collaboration with USAID units is expected during implementation, this APS is limited to applications from organizations outside of USAID.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
