BASA SUPPORTING GRANT SCHEME 2011
The Supporting Grant Scheme is the Department of Arts and Culture’s arts sponsorship initiative managed by Business and Arts South AFrica (BASA) to develop business sponsorship of the arts.
The Grant is an incentive for the business to sponsor, because its purpose is to provide additional funds to the arts organisation so that the artist can offer benefit or value to the business.The arts organisation and sponsor should discuss together ways of identifying opportunity through the sponsored programme for their mutual benefit.
To apply for a BASA Supporting Grant, both the arts applicant and the sponsor must complete the application forms, which are designed to encourage the two partners to work together and identify areas of potential benefit. BASA allocates funds to the project once it has assessed how the partnership benefits both the sponsor and the recipient.

It’s important to note that the grants are not another form of public subsidy to cap budgets or to make up shortfalls but are very specifically linked to projects.
