National River Care Fund
About National River Care Fund (NRCF)
The National River Care Fund (Small Grant Programme) is an initiative established by Global Environment Centre (GEC) to support local community, community based organisations/non-profit organisations to pursue their own river conservation initiatives. The goal of the Fund is to establish and encourage a river care civil society that has the capability to contribute and demonstrate the best management practices of River Care in Malaysia in addition to support establishment and sustainability of community based water and river care programme in Malaysia. We believe this initiative will motivate our community in becoming a river care civil society and provide a platform of collaboration among government, corporates and public.
