Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), focuses on strengthening and expanding high-quality HIV services in Kenya through faith-based and faith-affiliated health sites. The program is designed to provide both funding and hands-on technical assistance so that qualified local Kenyan organizations can continue, improve, and scale comprehensive HIV prevention, care, and antiretroviral treatment (ART) activities. A major theme is sustainability: the intent is not only to deliver services in the short term, but also to reinforce systems and local capacity so services remain reliable and effective over time within Faith Based Organization (FBO) affiliated settings across the Republic of Kenya.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds. In practical terms, that generally implies close collaboration with CDC on planning, implementation approaches, performance monitoring, and technical standards. The activity category is health, and the funding is associated with CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS). The opportunity projected up to four awards, with an estimated total funding level of 100,000,000. The listing does not specify an award floor or ceiling (both shown as 0), which usually indicates the precise award sizes would be determined based on the final program design, proposed scope, and available funds rather than a fixed per-award range.
Eligibility is narrowly targeted to local, indigenous Kenyan organizations that are fully registered in Kenya and demonstrably Kenyan-led and Kenyan-staffed. The definition of "indigenous" in this announcement is explicit: the organization must have originated and be located in the geographic area where it provides services, must serve the local population in that area, and must have a majority of key staff who are Kenyan across senior, mid-level, and support roles. The eligible organization types are broad as long as they meet the indigenous requirements, including public and private nonprofit organizations, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. In addition to being legally organized under Kenyan law with its principal place of business in Kenya, the organization must be at least 66 percent beneficially owned by Kenyan citizens or lawful permanent residents, and at least 66 percent of managerial staff as well as the overall staff must be Kenyan citizens or lawful permanent residents. These thresholds are central to the opportunity's goal of prioritizing local ownership, leadership, and long-term institutional capacity in Kenya's HIV response.
The operational focus is on comprehensive HIV programming within faith-based affiliated sites, which commonly includes a combination of prevention services, HIV testing and counseling, linkage to care, ongoing clinical management, provision and monitoring of ART, and supportive services that help patients remain in care. Because the announcement emphasizes both continuation and expansion, the expected work likely includes maintaining existing service delivery while also increasing reach, improving quality, and strengthening the systems that support care delivery. The technical assistance component signals that awardees would be expected to implement evidence-informed practices, adhere to national and PEPFAR-related guidelines, and build durable program management capacity, including monitoring and evaluation routines that can demonstrate service quality and outcomes.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted on February 8, 2011, with a closing date of April 8, 2011, and an archive date of May 8, 2011, indicating it was a time-limited competitive funding round that is no longer open. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of receiving the award. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement at the time, CDC directed them to the Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), including a phone contact (770-488-2700), and noted that the "Additional Information" link provided in the listing was not active and that applicants should use the "Full Announcement" section instead.
Overall, the grant is best understood as a large-scale PEPFAR-supported effort to shift more responsibility and resources to qualified Kenyan indigenous organizations, enabling them to lead and strengthen HIV prevention and treatment work within faith-based health networks. The combination of significant total funding, cooperative agreement structure, and strict indigenous eligibility criteria underscores the priority of building locally led, sustainable HIV service delivery capacity in Kenya, especially in the extensive faith-affiliated health service landscape.
