Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled FY14.PMWRA.Angola.SALW.RFA1 (Funding Opportunity Number PM PMWRA 14 031) is a discretionary U.S. government grant posted on July 11, 2014, by the Department of State office known as PM Weapons Removal and Abatement. It falls under the CFDA program number 19.800, Weapons Removal and Abatement, and is categorized within Conventional Weapons Destruction (CWD). The basic purpose of the award is to support the destruction of small arms and light weapons (SA/LW) and other munitions in Angola, helping reduce the risks posed by excess, unsecured, or otherwise hazardous weapons and ammunition stockpiles.
This announcement anticipated making one award, with an expected maximum (award ceiling) of $500,000 and no minimum amount listed (award floor of $0). The funding instrument type is a grant, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility. The opportunity opened on July 11, 2014, and the original and current closing date for applications was August 11, 2014. The opportunity was later archived on September 10, 2014, which generally indicates the application period had ended and the listing was no longer active for new submissions.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, as long as they were not institutions of higher education. In practical terms, the target applicant pool would typically include humanitarian mine action and conventional weapons destruction organizations, NGOs with technical capacity in weapons and ammunition management, and other specialized nonprofits capable of safely planning and carrying out SA/LW and munitions destruction activities in Angola in line with international safety and security standards.
