Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Establishment of Groundwork Portland" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOI WASO 11 0001) is a National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement announcement connected to the Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance program (CFDA 15.921). It falls under the Community Development activity category and is structured as a discretionary cooperative agreement rather than a traditional grant. The opportunity was posted and created on January 5, 2011, with an application closing date of January 15, 2011, and it was later archived on February 14, 2011. Only one award was expected to be made under this announcement.

A key point of this opportunity is that it does not include any financial assistance. The estimated total funding is listed as $0, and both the award ceiling and award floor are $0. In practical terms, this means the National Park Service was not offering cash funding through this announcement. Instead, the cooperative agreement format suggests the intent was to formalize a partnership arrangement, typically involving substantial involvement by the federal agency such as staff time, technical assistance, planning support, facilitation, or other non-monetary resources that can help advance a community-based project. The announcement explicitly states: "There is no funding associated with this cooperative agreement."

Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status recognized by the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which aligns with the fact that no federal dollars were being provided. The opportunity was administered by the National Park Service, and the named point of contact for assistance accessing the full announcement was Jennifer Gartzke, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2755.
