Opportunity Summary:
The Child, Newborn, and Maternal Health Project (Funding Opportunity Number RFA 391 13 000009) was a USAID-issued grant opportunity out of the Pakistan USAID Mission in Islamabad that was originally intended to support overseas health programming focused on child, newborn, and maternal health. The instrument planned for this activity was a cooperative agreement, which typically means the awardee would have carried out program implementation while working closely with USAID staff through substantial involvement in oversight, technical direction, and coordination. The opportunity was associated with CFDA 98.001, which covers USAID foreign assistance for programs overseas, and it indicated that cost sharing or matching would be required, meaning applicants would have needed to contribute a portion of project costs through cash or in-kind resources as defined in the solicitation.
Even though the listing shows an estimated total funding level of $60,000,000, the amendment recorded in the opportunity notice makes clear that the solicitation was cancelled. As a result, the expected number of awards is listed as zero, and the notice effectively nullifies the request for applications for implementation of the Child, Newborn, and Maternal Health Activity. The posting date was April 3, 2013, with an original closing date of May 6, 2013, but the current closing information was replaced with the cancellation statement, signaling that applications were no longer being accepted and no awards would be made under that specific RFA.
Eligibility was broadly described as "Others," with a note to consult the full announcement for additional eligibility details, but the cancellation language is repeated in the eligibility section as well, reinforcing that the opportunity was withdrawn regardless of applicant type. For administrative follow-up, the notice provides a point of contact at USAID Islamabad: Sara Saqib, Acquisition Specialist, with the listed phone number (+92 51 208 1277), specifically for assistance accessing the announcement electronically or addressing related questions in light of the cancellation.
