Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2014 Emergency Food and Shelter National Board opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 14 DAD 024 000 01) is a discretionary grant announced by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under CFDA 97.024, Emergency Food and Shelter National Board Program. The program is designed to provide federal funds that supplement and expand the existing work of local social service agencies, including both nonprofit organizations and government entities, to help individuals and families facing severe economic crisis. A key point in the program description is that the assistance supported by these funds is intended for hardship that is not the immediate result of a natural or man-made disaster, distinguishing it from FEMA disaster response and recovery programs.
The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with the category explanation identified as "Food and Shelter," which reflects the program's focus on basic needs assistance. The total estimated funding for this announcement is $120,000,000, and the award structure indicates a single expected award with an award ceiling of $120,000,000 and an award floor of $120,000,000. In practice, this structure signals that the grant is being made at the national level to support the Emergency Food and Shelter National Board’s administration and distribution framework, rather than being offered as multiple separate competitive awards directly to local providers through this particular listing.
Eligibility is limited and specifically points to the National Board for the Emergency Food and Shelter Program as the eligible applicant. This means the opportunity is not broadly open to the general public, individual nonprofits, or local governments applying directly through this Grants.gov posting. Instead, local nonprofit and governmental social service agencies typically participate in EFSP funding through the program’s established local allocation process, coordinated through the National Board and local boards, rather than via direct application to this federal notice.
There is no cost sharing or matching requirement associated with this grant opportunity, which can reduce barriers to participation for the eligible recipient entity at the national level and helps ensure federal dollars can be deployed to meet urgent needs without requiring additional non-federal contributions as a condition of the award.
The announcement was posted on May 9, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 26, 2014, and it was archived on June 26, 2014. The official reference and full announcement materials were made available through Grants.gov, and the listing provides a support contact for access issues: FEMA’s GMD Systems Branch at GMD Systems Branch@fema.gov.
