Opportunity Summary:
The Boston African American National Historic Site Program notice is a National Park Service (NPS) "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that the NPS plans to provide funding for specified education-related project activities through a non-competitive award action. The agency indicates that the funding will be added to an existing task agreement, identified as Task Agreement P13AC00967, which sits under an already-established cooperative agreement (Cooperative Agreement P08AC00116) with the Museum of African American History, Inc. In practical terms, this is an administrative and transparency step to document the NPS intent to continue or supplement work already being performed under an existing partnership, rather than inviting new applicants to compete for the funds.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 13 NERO 0109 and carries the title "Boston African American National Historic Site Program." The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial federal involvement in the supported activities compared with a standard grant. The activity category is education, aligning the supported work with interpretive, programmatic, or public learning objectives associated with the Boston African American National Historic Site and related historical resources.
Financially, the posting describes a single expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $26,500. The award floor and ceiling are both $26,500, which signals that the planned action is a fixed amount rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds. The CFDA listing provided is 15.938, identified as the Boston African American National Historic Site cooperative agreement with the Museum of African American History, which further reinforces that the funding is tied to a specific ongoing cooperative relationship.
Eligibility is shown as limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because this is not a competitive opportunity and is explicitly a notice of intent to award without full and open competition, this eligibility category does not function like a typical open grant where multiple organizations can apply. The timeline also reflects its notice-only nature: it was posted and created on August 9, 2013, carried an original and current closing date of August 13, 2013, and was archived on August 14, 2013. Those dates largely serve as a formal posting window rather than a true application period.
