Opportunity Summary:
The Go for Broke Nat Education Center grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HQ0034 09 1 3004) is a Congressionally directed Department of Defense grant intended to support the construction of the Go for Broke National Education Center museum and education facility. The central purpose is to help build a dedicated space to house and preserve the Center's collection, including oral histories, historical artifacts, and educational materials connected to World War II veterans of Japanese ancestry. By funding the physical development of the museum and education center, the grant aims to strengthen long-term public access to these resources and ensure they can be used effectively for learning and community engagement.
Programmatically, the project is framed as an educational and heritage-focused effort that highlights how the service and experiences of Japanese American WWII veterans reflect and reinforce major American ideals, especially patriotism and duty to country. The museum and education center is positioned as a public-facing venue where visitors can learn about the historical legacy of these veterans through curated materials, documented personal accounts, and related educational content. The activity category is listed as "Other," with the explanation making clear that the funding is specifically tied to construction of the facility that will house these collections and support public education.
Financially, the opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,500,000. The award ceiling is also $1,500,000, and the award floor is $0, indicating that the maximum possible award aligns with the total amount set aside for this earmark. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the applicant is not required to provide a financial match as a condition of receiving the grant.
Eligibility is restricted to one applicant: only the Go for Broke National Education Center may apply. The listing explicitly identifies the opportunity as Congressionally directed assistance (CFDA 12.599), meaning it is an earmarked award rather than an open competitive grant program available to the broader public or other organizations. The opportunity was posted on March 5, 2010, created on March 8, 2010, and had an original and current closing date of May 1, 2010, with an archive date of May 31, 2010.
