Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "A HOME AWAY FROM HOMELESSNESS" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI H8142100509) is a continuation cooperative agreement intended to sustain an existing partnership first established in 1994. The core purpose of the agreement is to continue delivering educational, recreational, and personal development opportunities through programs built around the natural environment of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. In practical terms, the opportunity centers on using the park and its surrounding resources as a setting for structured activities that support learning, healthy recreation, and broader personal growth.
This notice is categorized as a continuation rather than a new competitive grant. It signals that NPS is extending an established arrangement with a partner organization, rather than opening a broad competition among many applicants. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the supported work (for example, coordinating program goals, collaborating on implementation, or providing oversight and technical support), as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient generally operates more independently.
Only one award was expected under this announcement, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. At the time of posting, the public-facing funding figures (estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor) were shown as $0, which often appears in continuation or administrative notices where the main intent is to document the continuation action rather than publish detailed budget amounts in the synopsis. The opportunity was posted on August 23, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 25, 2010, and it was later archived on September 24, 2010. The very short application window is consistent with a continuation action tied to an existing partner relationship.
Eligibility, as stated, was limited to nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. The sponsoring agency is the National Park Service. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Carol Axley, Contract Specialist, at 415-561-4754 or carolaxley@nps.gov.
