Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Existing Projects AUGUST, 1 2008 Start Date," is a discretionary grant competition administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration on Aging (AoA). It is designed specifically to support continuation or expansion work under an existing project rather than launching brand-new initiatives. The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means AoA expects to have a more active role than in a standard grant, such as providing technical input, coordinating federal oversight, or participating in key project decisions and reporting.

The opportunity falls under the Funding Activity Category of Income Security and Social Services and is associated with CFDA number 93.048, "Special Programs for the Aging - Title IV and Title IID Discretionary Projects." The announcement indicates that eligibility is limited to existing grantees, meaning organizations that already hold the relevant AoA award or are currently funded under the applicable program framework. The listing notes "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)" as the eligible applicant type, but the eligibility information clarifies that it is intended for existing grantees, so applicants would generally need to confirm that they are already funded under the appropriate AoA project and meet any continuation requirements described in the full notice.

AoA anticipated making about 16 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,492,300. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $192,300 up to a ceiling of $250,000. The opportunity also includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were expected to contribute non-federal resources toward the project; the specific percentage, allowable sources, and documentation requirements would be defined in the full announcement or related program guidance.

Key dates and submission requirements are clearly specified. The opportunity was posted and created on April 22, 2008, with an application deadline of June 10, 2008. Applications had to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov by midnight Eastern Time on the closing date. The archive date is July 10, 2008, indicating that the solicitation was no longer active after that point. The title references an August 1, 2008 start date, suggesting that successful applicants would begin the funded continuation period on or around that date, subject to award processing and final approvals.

For applicant support or technical access issues related to obtaining the full announcement, the contact listed is Donald Grantt, identified as the project officer, reachable by phone at (202) 357-3447.
