When nominating a Local Entity for Needs USAID

# data[].attributes.body
I am a female entrepreneur who recently established a social enterprise in northern Nigeria. I would like to request that USAID consider providing hand-holding support, such as non-traditional financing, to women. This support would help them navigate the existing barriers that hinder their progress in creating an impact within their local communities.

Is there a possibility for USAID to develop, within this year 2024, a small special pilot funding window for direct access of small community-based organizations (sCBOs), through a simplified online project proposal and reporting templates, including supporting the organizing of small village or barangay-based consortium of sCBOs in the Philippines, which is beyond the usual access of local well-established NGOs?

Beyond just the usual incentive system being provided to community leaders/volunteers,

was there any specific policy related discussion or project experience that

seriously considered the providing of payments for community care-work

and on the time contributions of project community leaders of small community-based organizations (sCBOs)? Instead of prolonging a system of unpaid care work of community frontline leaders of beneficiaries and who are long-treated as "volunteers" to the point of abuse of their time and leave them double-burdened of care work for their families as well as for their communities; triple-burdened for women leaders. Can the USAID develop policy of paid volunteer care work, leading to special pilot funding window for direct access of USIAD assistance to sCBOs having their leaders to be provided with volunteer cash for community work?
