Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Existing Project" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2008 AOA CONT FR), was offered by the Administration on Aging as a discretionary funding opportunity using a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument. It falls under the activity category of Income Security and Social Services and is tied to CFDA 93.048, which covers Special Programs for the Aging under Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects. In practical terms, this is not a broad open competition for new ideas; it is designed to support the continuation of an already-approved project that is currently funded or previously approved under this program structure.
The opportunity was structured to make a single award, with an expected awards count of 1. The total estimated funding available was $952,301, and both the award ceiling and award floor were set at exactly $952,301, meaning the agency anticipated one continuation award at a fixed amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, so the recipient would need to contribute non-federal resources according to the terms of the existing project and the continuation requirements, rather than relying entirely on federal dollars.
Eligibility was limited and specific. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," with clarification provided in the eligibility text: an applicant must already have an existing approved project in order to submit a continuation application. That requirement signals this was intended for a current grantee or an organization already operating under an approved project framework, not for new organizations seeking to start a new initiative. The language "continuation application" strongly suggests that only entities with an active or previously authorized project relationship with the Administration on Aging under this program could apply.
Key dates show this was a time-limited continuation cycle. The opportunity was posted and created on April 21, 2008, with an original and current closing date of May 9, 2008. It was later archived on June 8, 2008, indicating the application window had ended and the listing was no longer active for submissions after that point. Anyone reviewing it now should treat it as a historical announcement rather than an open funding call.
For applicants who needed assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Marla Bush, identified as a Project Officer, reachable by phone at 202-357-3508. This contact detail reflects the typical setup for continuation grants where program staff can guide an existing grantee through continuation submission expectations, required forms, and compliance details connected to the cooperative agreement.
