Small Projects Foundation was founded in 1988, and determined that there was a need for an organisation that would find out the needs of beneficiaries, help them to identify their priorities and work with them to plan, implement and achieve their goals in a systemic way. SPF also determined that there was a need for a small flexible organisation that would be sustainable over the long term by keeping a small permanent staff and employing contract staff on programmes and projects.
Small Projects Foundation approach focuses on the concept of a sunset clause in all work with communities - that after a programme or project is completed, the organisation would withdraw and allow people to continue independently with their lives and to that end, that each initiative should build towards independence and sustainability of the people and organisations that it works with.
