The National Council for Children’s Television (NCCT) is looking for organizations who have the expertise in the video production through the National Endowment Fund for Children’s Television “Fund”. The fund will provide financial support to qualified organizations to produce high quality television programs that promote the Filipino child’s awareness and appreciation for their cultural identity, national heritage, social issues, and contribute to their holistic development.
As stated in their official website (ncct.gov.ph), the organization must have the expertise in the video production to be eligible in applying for the grant. They must have a proven track record and expertise in the production and broadcast of high-quality children’s television or child-friendly television programs, legally-existing and possessing firm commitment for the advancement of children’s causes, and priority shall be given to independent producers and organizations or institutions including youth organizations who do not have access to the resources of a national network.
Based on the NCCT’s post, application to the Fund shall have four stages: Evaluation of the qualification, track record, and financial capability of the proponent; Preliminary review and shortlisting of concept papers and project proposals; Panel presentation, deliberation, and final selection; and Award of Grant.
The entire process will take five (5) months to complete from the Evaluation of the qualification, track record, and financial capability of the proponent to the Awarding of Grant.
The deadline of submission of the forms is on 28th of February, 2021.
There is no entry fee for submission. Only complete technical and financial requirements, concept papers and letter of intent will be considered and eligible for the preliminary screening. Concept Papers can be completed in English or Filipino.
Only accredited and shortlisted proponents will be contacted and request to submit their NEFCTV Project Proposals. Unsolicited project proposals will not be entertained. ###
