Despite the fact that most of the companies that are started today are created to carry out commercial activities and make a profit, there are still enterprises whose work is not aimed at generating income. We are talking about non-profit organizations (NPOs) engaged in charity, meeting the social needs of the population, raising the cultural level of citizens, and similar activities. Since the activities of such organizations are useful and socially significant, the state seeks to support both newly established and long-established NGOs. One of the measures to support non-profit enterprises is the issuance of Presidential grants. Let's figure out who and under what conditions can receive Presidential grants for NGOs in 2019.
Areas of activity of non-profit organizations
Whatever direction of activity is chosen by a non-profit enterprise, the main thing is to work without the goal of generating income.
At the legislative level, a list of areas of activity available for non-profit enterprises has been approved:
- holding patriotic events with the population;
- occupation scientific activity, sports competitions, culture, education;
- providing free legal advice to citizens;
- security and protection environment;
- providing support to refugees and internally displaced persons;
- social protection of citizens;
- work with the population aimed at preparing for possible accidents, accidents and catastrophes of a man-made and environmental nature.
How to start a non-profit organization
Before engaging in the opening of an NPO, it is necessary to clearly define the purpose of its establishment, with the scope of activity. Despite the fact that the organization will have no income, it is necessary to register a legal entity (in some organizational and legal form of a non-profit enterprise) and obtain a certificate of registration with the tax service. Like commercial firms, NPOs will report on their activities, on the amount of cash injections from outside, and so on.
Considering that the state, despite the economic crisis, is financing the activities of non-profit enterprises that are useful for society, it makes sense to deal with socially significant issues, help the population and improve the social level of development. Sometimes such activity is no less justified than industrial production.
Sources of funding for NPO activities
Like any other company, a non-profit firm will need funding - you need to pay for the implementation of projects, pay salaries, pay utility bills, etc. It is useless to look for investors - in this case, their goals will not find a response, since NCOs do not bring profits.
Funds for the operation of the enterprise come from the following sources:
- voluntary contributions and donations from the population;
- contributions of the members of the organization themselves in the form of cash, real estate, valuables, assets;
- carrying out entrepreneurial activities that would contribute to the achievement of the main goals of the organization;
- dividends on securities and deposits;
- government grants.
Does the state provide assistance to NGOs
The government every year plans the cost of supporting NGOs by distributing budgetary funds. In the previous year, more than 600 million rubles were allocated, which were distributed among the subjects of the Russian Federation in order to provide financial assistance to non-profit firms that carry out the most useful activities for the region.
In 2017, 4.5 billion rubles were allocated to finance the work of NGOs that won the competitive selection for grants from the President of the Russian Federation in the second and 2.5 billion rubles in the first competition - 970 projects received funding following the results of the first competition.
How to get Presidential grants for NGOs in 2019
Before applying for a grant from the state, you need to apply for participation in the competitive selection and prove the existence of specific goals for which the funds will be directed. Applications are submitted on the official grant portal and on the website of the Public Chamber. If the coordinating committee confirms that the activities of the NPO meet the requirements for participation in the competition, the organization will have a chance to be allocated by the state. budget for its development.
Applications must be submitted within a strict deadline. For example, in 2017, the acceptance of applications for the second competition was completed, and the results will be summed up on November 24. The winners of the first competition were announced already in July, they were 970 organizations that received a total of 2.5 billion rubles.
What is the amount of Presidential grants for NGOs in 2019
The amount of the granted grant is not limited and depends on the goals, scope and relevance of the NPO project submitted for consideration by the commission. On the different types projects are allocated different amounts of money:
- up to 0.5 million rubles for projects for NGOs operating in a small region or for a short period of time;
- from 0.5 million to 3 million rubles for NGOs implementing regional projects;
- from 3 million rubles for NGOs whose projects cover the territory of several regions or federal districts;
- more than 10 million rubles for NGOs implementing federal-scale projects and high degree significance.
What criteria are used to evaluate non-profit organizations?
An application submitted by a non-profit enterprise is considered by a special commission, whose members pay special attention to the following points:
- the presence of innovation and the uniqueness of the project;
- a logically structured plan indicating the project implementation plan and expected results;
- the adequacy and realism of the conditions for the implementation of the project;
- the level of professionalism of NPO organizers;
- expenses for the implementation of NPO projects, the effectiveness of the work carried out;
- availability of a source of funding that is not related to state support measures;
- the scale of the project;
- information openness of the enterprise;
- providing assistance to other NGOs;
- successful experience in the implementation of other projects in the past;
- the regions in which the organization operates.
After assessing each of the above points, the commission awards a certain number of points, and the more points, the higher the chances of receiving a grant. Then an open vote is held and the winners are announced. They are warned that the grant cannot be spent on supporting political parties, organizing strikes and rallies, as well as paying taxes and making deposits for profit. Funds generally cannot be used to generate income. Budget funds are distributed in the following order:
- issuance of Presidential grants to the winners of the competitive selection;
- grants to non-profit enterprises from the civic chamber;
- targeted financing of organizations that did not participate in the competition;
- financing of social orders.
Which NGOs can take part in the competition for a grant
Even if an NPO has already received a state grant for the implementation of the project and is at the stage of its implementation, it may be submitted a new application for participation in the competition, which will be considered in the general manner.
Non-profit organizations opened by non-municipal or state structures, in order to take part in the competition, must meet the following requirements:
- NCOs had to register in accordance with the procedure established by law no later than 12 months before the deadline for submission of applications. If she applies for a grant of up to 0.5 million rubles, registration could be six months before the deadline for applications. If the NPO is “ resource center”and is engaged in providing consultations and information to the citizens who have applied, its registration must take place at least a year before the end of the acceptance of applications (it does not matter how much money the NPO claims).
- The charter of the NPO contains provisions on the main purpose of the organization's activities, which would meet the requirements for the participants in the competition.
- The work of the NCO has not been legally suspended, bankruptcy proceedings have not been initiated, and the NCO is not in the process of being liquidated.
- NCOs do not have overdue obligations to pay taxes and other payments to the budget of the country or region, or they have judgment, according to which the debt of the organization is recognized as repaid.
Who is not eligible to apply for a grant
It will be useless to apply for the following who wish to participate in the competition:
- Citizens operating as an individual entrepreneur.
- Individuals.
- Commercial companies.
- Local or federal authorities.
- State and municipal institutions.
- Non-profit enterprises that are:

As you know, any project must develop, but this will first require capital investments that can be beneficial in the future. Young professionals in Russia have a huge potential that requires state support, so there is such a thing as presidential grants.
What is a grant?
The grant is designed for candidates or doctors in certain areas of science. Not only the scientist himself can receive a grant, but also the head of the whole team who leads scientific work in Russia with growing talented students.
The funds allocated for promotion are included in the state budget. Often, in order to receive a grant from the President of the Russian Federation, it is required to pass a competition.
How are grants distributed?
Competitions for the possibility of receiving assistance from the state, as a rule, are held for the development of scientific research at the state level. The following categories of citizens can take part in them:
- Young scientists who are candidates of science, and at the time of participation in the competition they were not 35 years old. For the competition of presidential grants, they provide dissertations on various scientific topics that have not been studied by anyone before and are a novelty in science. For example, it can be technological research.
- The second category is citizens under 40 who have already become doctors of science. Doctoral papers that are related to a specific scientific topic and supported by rigorous evidence can be accepted for the competition.
- Scientific organizations of Russia take part in competitions. But it is worth paying attention that this should be an established team, in which there is research by scientists of different age categories and scientific degrees.
All researchers should choose one direction, and their joint activities should be directed to one overall result. Development grants are given to teams that include well-trained scientific personnel, there must be a leader and researchers who are under 35 years old.
Who gives Presidential grants
Scientific papers are initially submitted for consideration by a special scientific commission. Direct attention is drawn to the fact that the work must meet all the conditions of the competition, otherwise it may not be accepted. If the commission approved the work, then it is then redirected to the Council, where the work is given an expert assessment. It is this assessment that plays an important role, since this will influence the determination of the winner.
How the work of scientists is considered
As soon as a positive decision is made by the commission regarding the work of a young specialist, the state agency concludes a special agreement with him or with the organization where the participant works. The document must indicate the topic of research on which the young specialist worked, and he is allocated a grant from the President of the Russian Federation.
Work in the chosen direction of science should include not only the main part, but also such additions as:
- Work plan.
- An estimate of the costs required to carry out the research. Not only full financing is indicated, but also financing of each stage separately.
- It describes all the obligations that are placed on the shoulders of a young scientist or organization, and the responsibility for spending the allocated funds.
- The scientist must give his written consent to conduct scientific research according to the scientific program developed by him.
Additionally, other conditions for the use of the state grant may be included in the contract.
Can a check be made on the intended use of the grant?
As a rule, presidential grants are not issued just like that, so the Federal agencies have every right to conduct a check on the purpose of grant spending. Such moments are prescribed in the contract, which clearly indicates the obligations of the young scientist. He is obliged to follow the provided plan, and at each completed stage, provide a report on the expenditure of funds.
Given the fact that a young scientist or organization may need a base for experimentation, the Federal Agency may involve outside organizations that can provide all the necessary conditions for successful research.
Who can receive presidential grants?
State grants may be issued to scientists who make a significant contribution to the science of the state. Russian researchers or even entire organizations that create and research scientific and technical innovations can become participants in such competitions. Anyone who is actively working in the school of the Russian Federation and really makes a significant contribution to the development of science can submit his work for the competition.
What are the terms of issuance and the size of the grant?
The presidential grant to young scientists can be issued for a period of two years. Speaking in more detail about the size of grants, it is worth noting that they can fluctuate, basically it all depends on the costs that will be required to carry out research. The total estimate includes the salary of a scientist, which reaches 60,000 rubles a year for a candidate, and 84,000 for a doctor. Managers who actively accompanied young specialists in research work receive a one-time incentive in the amount of 24,000 rubles.
The amount of funds as material support
Competitions, scholarships, grants - all this contributes to the development of science, so the state is trying in every possible way to provide material assistance to young scientists. The amount of cash disbursement is stipulated by the agreement with the organization to whose account the funds will be transferred. It should be remembered that additional financial support cannot be higher than half of the total amount of the grant.
Young scientists up to 35 years old, who are considered the main specialists of the Russian school, can count on material support from the state. Cash is given young specialist in addition to his fixed salary. It is also important to keep in mind the purpose of public funding. If in any way it turns out that the grants of the President of the Russian Federation allocated to young scientists are not used for their intended purpose, then the payments of funds are immediately terminated.
Presidential Scholarships
State support for young professionals annually covers at least 40 young professionals up to 35 years old who have a PhD degree, 600,000 rubles are allocated from the state budget for this. The number of specialists under 40 who have a doctorate in science and receive presidential grants is 60 people, 1 million rubles a year are allocated for them. The state allocates annually an amount of 400,000 rubles for leading scientific schools.
In no case should we forget about the Russian Federation. Such payments are established for a period of up to 3 years and amounts to 20,000 rubles. The number of students who can count on such financial support from the state is about 1,000 annually, and if we talk about the funds allocated from the state budget for these payments, the total amount reaches 240 million rubles a year.
Rules for submitting a dissertation for a grant
In order to receive grants from the President of the Russian Federation, young scientists should definitely familiarize themselves with all the rules for submitting work for consideration by the commission. As a rule, all competitions are held in two stages:
- The first stage is held for young professionals who are candidates of science.
- The second stage is carried out for those researchers who already have a Ph.D.
The grant applicant must remember that he can only submit his work within the framework of one application. Grant applicants cannot be:
- Last year's winners, as their first grant has not yet expired.
- Holders of the Presidential Scholarship.
In turn, organizations that apply for participation in the competition for a grant must have a good material base, the necessary equipment for conducting research work, exceptional reputation, have no problems with the tax office. The organization will not be able to take part if its property has been arrested, and the economic activity itself has been suspended.
It should be noted that presidential grants for NGOs have been calculated. Non-profit organizations can also submit their applications for participation in the competition.
What areas of science development are given priority this year
Grants are allocated for a rather long period, as a rule, it is two years, but only those projects that can really be called fundamental are funded. To date, the commission most of all gives preference to works written in the context of the following areas of science:
- Mathematics and technology.
- Physical discoveries and discoveries in the field of astronomy.
- Discovery of new chemical materials and technologies.
- Scientific research in the field of biology.
- New discoveries in the rational use of natural resources and the struggle for the environment.
- Humanities are welcome.
- Discoveries in the field of medicine.
- Engineering projects.
- Information technology direction.
- Agronomy and development of agriculture.
After analyzing the already submitted works, we can say that the most popular topics among young people are:
- The protection of life and health of people, while being actively carried out, which in the future will reduce the number of manifestations of incurable diseases.
- Projects related to education and enlightenment are being actively promoted.
- A lot of work is aimed at solving the problem of social services, including support for vulnerable segments of the population.
- The direction in the field of culture and science, as well as topics related to the preservation of historical values, has become popular.
Competitions, scholarships, grants become an excellent motivation for the development of young people who strive to achieve great heights in science. Talented young scientists should show themselves in different areas activities, making the state stronger and in demand. The greater the amount of such incentives and state aid, the more talented people will be able to prove themselves in various scientific fields, offering more innovative projects that will help to make the world better.
