Opportunity Summary:
The Boston African American National Historic Site Program notice is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior funding announcement that serves strictly as a public notice of an intended award rather than an open grant competition. The NPS explicitly states that this is not a request for applications, meaning outside organizations are not being invited to apply and no competitive selection process is being conducted through this posting. Instead, the purpose is to document the agency's intent to provide continuation funding to a specific partner for defined project work.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 11 NERO 0041 and is categorized as continuation funding delivered through a cooperative agreement, with the activity area identified as education. The planned award count is one (1), and the funding amount is fixed at $50,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $50,000. No cost sharing or matching is required. The associated CFDA listing is 15.912, National Historic Landmark, which signals that the work ties into the National Historic Landmark program and related historic preservation and interpretation goals.
The intended recipient is the Museum of African American History, Inc., identified as the cooperator under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H1723080801). The NPS references a specific Task Agreement, P11AT00606 (R1723110802), as the vehicle for the project activities to be funded. The notice also indicates that this award is being made without full and open competition, which typically means the agency is using an allowable non-competitive justification (for example, continuation of ongoing work with an established partner, unique qualifications, or the need for consistency in program delivery), though the detailed rationale and scope are noted as being contained in an attachment within the full announcement materials.
In terms of timing, the notice was posted and created on June 2, 2011, with an original and current closing date of June 7, 2011, and an archive date of June 8, 2011. These dates function more as administrative posting windows than a true application period, since the announcement is not open for submissions. Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but in practice the notice is tied to a single named organization because it is a continuation action rather than a competitive funding opportunity.
For anyone needing access to the full documentation referenced in the posting, the contact provided is Dawn Mach, Contract Specialist, at 215-597-0056, associated with BOAF NHS (Boston African American National Historic Site).
