Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Accelerating Delivery of Comprehensive HIV/AIDS/TB services including Prevention, Care, Support and Treatment Adult and Children Living with HIV/AIDS in the Republic of Uganda under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief" is a CDC-funded PEPFAR cooperative agreement designed to expand and strengthen HIV and TB-related health services in Uganda. The overall focus is on delivering a full package of HIV/AIDS services that includes prevention, clinical care, treatment, and ongoing support for people living with HIV (both adults and children), while also addressing HIV/TB co-infection through integrated programming. The intent is to build on existing PEPFAR investments and continue scaling service delivery through multiple health service outlets across selected districts and their surrounding catchment areas.

The program is structured to reach a large number of clients over the project period, with a stated target of serving more than 110,000 people. A significant portion of these clients, about 50,000 individuals, are already receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART), and the program anticipates enrolling additional HIV-positive clients into care and treatment during the award period. The geographic scope includes a broad set of districts and major service hubs, specifically Kampala, Wakiso, Masaka, Jinja, Tororo, Mbale, Soroti, Gulu, Rukungiri, Masindi, and Mbarara, along with nearby catchment communities that rely on those facilities for routine and referral care. In practical terms, this implies support to a network of clinics and related service outlets where patients access testing linkages, ART initiation and maintenance, TB screening and treatment coordination, and the social and adherence supports required to keep people retained in care.

From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under a cooperative agreement mechanism, meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement during implementation compared with a typical grant. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067 (Global AIDS). The opportunity anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), indicating the funded organization would likely serve as a primary implementer coordinating delivery across multiple sites and districts. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, which lowers the financial barrier to participation and keeps the emphasis on programmatic capacity and performance.

Financially, the notice lists an estimated total funding amount of $85,000,000 for the opportunity, with an award floor of $2,000,000 and an award ceiling of $9,600,000. Those figures suggest a sizable multi-year initiative where annual increments or budget periods may be structured within the broader total estimate, typical of large PEPFAR-associated cooperative agreements. The posting timeline shows the opportunity was posted March 23, 2012, created April 16, 2012, and ultimately closed May 15, 2012 (with an original closing date of May 23, 2012). The archive date is June 22, 2012, confirming it is no longer active and is provided for historical and reference purposes.

Eligibility is limited to locally registered indigenous organizations located in Uganda that are not-for-profit. In other words, the applicant must be a Uganda-based NGO or similar locally registered nonprofit entity, rather than an international organization applying directly. The notice references additional eligibility clarification in the full announcement, which would typically spell out registration requirements, documentation expectations, and any restrictions related to prior performance, governance, or partnership arrangements.

For access and support, the listing directs applicants to open the full announcement on the source page (noting the provided "Additional Information" link is not active in the text). For technical difficulties accessing the complete announcement, the contact point is the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), reachable by phone at 770-488-2700.
