Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity, titled "Existing Project" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2009 AOA CONT OP2), was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration on Aging (AoA). It fell under the broad funding activity category of Income Security and Social Services and was connected to CFDA program number 93.048, which covers Special Programs for the Aging under Title IV and Title II discretionary projects. In practical terms, this type of listing typically reflects continued or supplemental support tied to aging-related services or initiatives that AoA funds under its discretionary authority, rather than a wide-open competition for brand-new applicants.

Eligibility was limited specifically to existing grantees. Although the eligible applicant type is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the clarifying eligibility information states that only organizations already holding the relevant AoA grant were eligible to apply. That means this opportunity was essentially a continuation or extension mechanism for an already funded project, not a general call for new organizations to propose new projects. The title and short description ("Existing Project") reinforce that the purpose was to support work already underway rather than start something entirely new.

The opportunity included a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients were expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the total project cost. The specific match ratio is not included in the excerpt provided, but applicants would have been required to document qualifying contributions as part of the budget and compliance requirements, consistent with typical HHS/AoA grant rules.

In terms of funding amounts, the estimated total funding available was $749,444. Individual awards were expected to fall within a relatively narrow band, with an award floor of $350,000 and an award ceiling of $399,444. This suggests the agency anticipated making roughly two awards (or one award plus a smaller allocation depending on the program structure), but the exact number of awards is not stated in the provided data.

Key dates show that the announcement was posted and created on January 29, 2009, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of April 30, 2009. The archive date was May 30, 2009, indicating the listing was formally retired from active status shortly after the closing date passed.

For support, AoA provided a point of contact for applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically: Rodd Clay, Senior Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at (202) 357-3463 or by email at rodd.clay@aoa.gov.
