Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2015 Notice of Funding Opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PRM PRMOAPEU 15 007) is a re-advertised U.S. government grant competition from the Department of State's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) focused on supporting refugees and displaced populations in Georgia. The opportunity falls under the Overseas Refugee Assistance funding area (CFDA 19.520) and is intended to fund NGO-led programs that address key humanitarian and stabilization needs affecting people who have been forced from their homes or are living in displacement-related vulnerability.
PRM indicates it is seeking proposals that deliver assistance in three main programmatic areas: protection, livelihoods and self-reliance, and confidence-building. In practical terms, protection activities generally refer to efforts that reduce risks of harm and improve access to rights and services, such as legal assistance, case management, referrals, support for survivors of violence, and initiatives that strengthen safeguards for at-risk individuals and families. Livelihoods and self-reliance programming typically aims to help displaced people reduce dependency on aid by building employable skills and improving income opportunities, which can include vocational training, job placement support, small business development, and other market-linked approaches that help households regain stability. Confidence-building projects commonly focus on improving social cohesion and trust, reducing tensions between communities, and supporting peaceful community interactions, often through community-based initiatives, dialogue, joint projects, and activities that encourage cooperation between displaced groups and host communities.
The funding instrument for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the funder expects a higher level of involvement during implementation than with a standard grant, such as collaboration on planning, monitoring, and key program decisions. The posted award ceiling is $200,000, with no stated minimum award amount (award floor $0). The announcement also states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can lower barriers for organizations that may not have access to non-federal matching funds.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations, including those with 501(c)(3) IRS status as well as nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status (in both cases excluding institutions of higher education). The notice explicitly flags that international multilateral organizations such as UN agencies should not apply through Grants.gov; instead, those entities are directed to contact the PRM Program Officer listed in the full announcement prior to the closing date if they seek funding for relevant activities. The competition is open to both past applicants and new applicants, signaling that prior participation is not a prerequisite and that PRM is receptive to fresh proposals as well as resubmissions or new concepts from organizations that have applied before.
Key dates in the listing show the opportunity was posted and created on June 23, 2015, with a closing date of July 23, 2015, and an archive date of August 22, 2015. The original description notes it was initially posted on April 14, 2015, and later re-advertised, suggesting PRM sought to broaden awareness or re-open access for applicants under the same program intent. For technical issues accessing the announcement, the listing provides Grants.gov Contact Center support (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), available 24/7 except federal holidays.
Overall, this opportunity is a targeted PRM funding call for Georgia designed to support displaced and refugee communities through programs that protect people from harm, help families regain economic footing and independence, and strengthen community trust and cohesion. The relatively modest ceiling amount and the absence of a cost-sharing requirement suggest it may be well suited to focused projects, pilot interventions, or discrete components of broader humanitarian responses that can show clear outcomes in one or more of PRM's priority areas.
