GIP works on projects of differing themes, sizes and complexity. and is deeply grateful to all its donors for helping to make such activities possible.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of The Netherlands (MATRA and TMF Programs), European Commission, Open Society Institute, Cordaid, ICCO and many larger and smaller private foundations, embassies, municipalities, ministries, professional organizations and religious groups have funded our work. We have also benefited greatly from the growing number of Dutch mental health agencies that have participated in our projects on a voluntary basis or at reduced fees.
Our funding is primarily project-based. Securing institutional-type funding for the organization remains an important goal as it would increase our ability to respond rapidly to needs within mental health systems and among our partners and beneficiaries. Our annual budget in 2006 and 2007 was approximately 3 million Euro.
GIP-Hilversum continues to hold a "certificate of no objection"" (in Dutch "verklaring van geen bezwaar") from the Central Bureau for Fundraising (Centrale Buro Fondsenwerving) in The Netherlands. This certificate confirms that our fundraising and provision of information are carried out in a responsible way and that sufficient guarantees are offered of further responsible fundraising and spending. The certificate deems GIP as worthy of support.
GIP promotes humane, ethical, and effective mental health care throughout the world and supports a global network of individuals and organizations to develop, advocate for, and carry out the necessary reforms.
