The Spark MicroGrants app is a mobile data collection tool to be used in conjunction with Spark's streamlined village planning process. It allows field staff to record accurate information in the field with offline capabilities to capture data in locations with low connectivity. It has been used to collect data in various rural villages across East Africa. 

About Spark MicroGrants
Spark MicroGrants was founded in 2010 to prove community-driven development can be done at scale. Spark has designed a novel approach for launching communities facing poverty into action and has partnered with over 170 villages across Rwanda, Uganda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Ghana. Of the village projects backed by Spark, 94 percent are sustaining, 77 percent have launched secondary projects independently of Spark and 90 percent have continued to host regular community meetings where they discuss important topics, such as land disputes and new initiatives. These metrics indicate Spark partner communities graduate from the process with a commitment to continued local change.
