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.

TITLE: Ambassador's Fund for HIV and AIDS
The Ambassador's Fund for HIV and AIDS in Tanzania will use PEPFAR funds to support some of Tanzania's most promising small community- and faith-based organizations (CBOs and FBOs) that are making significant contributions to the fight against HIV and AIDS, including organizations of persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAs). The Fund for HIV and AIDS will complement grants provided under the Ambassador's Self Help Fund which focuses on water projects, healthcare projects (excluding medicine or
counseling), solar/energy efficiency/environmental projects, and income generating projects. The Fund will also complement the Democracy and Human Rights Fund. Activities funded through this program will target PLWHAs as well as their families and caregivers, community volunteers, CBOs, and FBOs.
The Fund for HIV and AIDS will be administered by the existing Ambassador's Special Self-Help Fund Coordinator. Working with the PEPFAR Country Coordinator's Office, the Self-Help Fund Coordinator will establish guidelines and review procedures to ensure that strong applications are considered for funding through a fair, transparent process. Criteria for selection include: improvement of basic conditions at the community level; benefit a substantial number of people in the community; be within the means of the local
community to operate and maintain; and quick implementation of the grant within one-year agreement period. The Self-Help Fund Coordinator will be responsible for ranking and evaluating all unsolicited proposals prior to review by a full committee comprised of representatives from the PEPFAR interagency team and the Mission's Humanitarian Assistance Coordination Board. This broad committee will meet with the Self-Help Fund Coordinator on a quarterly basis to review final applicants and to share lessons learned
on community grants program implementation. The Self-Help Fund Coordinator will also be responsible for keeping a database of received proposals, identifying organizations that may be appropriate for consideration, and sending timely and appropriate replies to organizations whose proposals fall outside the parameters of consideration. It is expected that between 15 and 30 grants will be issued, with most grant awards being $10,000 or less. The Self-Help Fund Coordinator is under the supervision of the
Mission's Deputy Chief of Mission.
