Opportunity Summary:
The IFRP 2010 Distribution Grant Application is a USAID Food for Peace funding opportunity designed to help get shelf-stable, prepackaged food products to people who need them by supporting the logistics side of international food relief. Specifically, the International Food Relief Partnership (IFRP) focuses on the production and stockpiling of these foods, as well as their transportation, delivery, and distribution. This particular solicitation covers grant proposals aimed at moving and distributing IFRP food products in country or to final destinations, rather than general development programming. The program is administered by USAID under the Food for Peace Emergency Program (CFDA 98.008), and awards are made under the authority of Section 208(a)(2) of the Food for Peace Act (7 U.S.C. 1726b(a)(2)), with grants governed by the IFRP guidelines and procedures and the applicable USAID regulations in 22 CFR Part 226.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that are either (1) U.S. nonprofit organizations recognized as 501(c)(3) entities and tax-exempt under 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (2) Public International Organizations (PIOs). USAID explicitly notes that new partners are welcome and encourages qualified nonprofits and PIOs, including those without prior USAID funding history, to apply. The funding instrument is a discretionary grant, there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, and the published award ceiling is $125,000 (with no stated minimum award floor).
The timeline for this opportunity is straightforward and strict: there is a single application review cycle for Fiscal Year 2010, and complete applications must be received by the Office of Food for Peace no later than 5:00 p.m. EDT on June 1, 2010. Late submissions are not accepted. After the closing date, USAID anticipated notifying applicants of award decisions in roughly 60 days. These procedures apply both to organizations applying for the first time and to current grantees seeking consecutive year funding.
Submission requires both a hard copy and an electronic copy. Applicants must send one unbound paper copy to USAID's Office of Food for Peace via AMEX International, attention "2010 IFRP Applications," at 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Ronald Reagan Building, North Tower, Suite 270, Washington, DC 20004. In parallel, applicants must email one electronic copy in Microsoft Word format to IFRP@amexdc.com. USAID indicates it will confirm receipt within two days of the proposal arriving, and it will also forward a copy of the proposal to the relevant USAID Mission or the U.S. embassy in the country where the proposed operations would take place, signaling that in-country review and context considerations are part of the process.
