PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.

Reprogramming August08: Funding Increase $500,000.
This is a new activity under COP08. As a sub-partner of Opportunity International, HfH has received
PEPFAR funding since April 2005 to address the shelter needs of Orphans and Vulnerable Children and
their caregivers. Due to the uniqueness of the service HfH provides and the limited geographic scope of OI,
the USG has identified HfH as a Prime Partner to continue this service. Working in conjunction with other
OVC partners, HfH will use COP08 funding to build on its previous activities and to expand its work into
Nampula province.
An important component of the HfH program is the Youth Apprenticeship Program where HfH's masons and
carpenters mentor orphaned youth about the construction trade. On completion of the apprenticeship, the
youths may qualify for a start-up business loan from a partner organization or continue to build with HfH.
The HfH project approach uses renewable, local resources, such as thatch, which are cheaper and easier
to replace. HfH locally procures 95% of labor and material resources, keeping costs to a minimum and
enabling profits from sales to remain within the community. In comparison, only 10% of needed materials for
cement blocks or conventional houses can be procured locally.
HfH also provides capacity building support to community groups that care for OVC and fosters the
management of home construction projects by locally elected volunteer committees. Families and
community members gain knowledge and skills in construction, sanitation improvement and inheritance
planning. HfH works with government and legal assistance programs to train caregivers about the rights of
women and children to inherit houses, and ways that families can protect their inheritance (i.e. legal wills,
agreement by community leaders, family memories and documents indicating plans).
