Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a CDC cooperative agreement (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS09-973) focused on expanding and strengthening HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment programs in the United Republic of Tanzania under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The overall aim is twofold: first, to deliver HIV prevention services to people at increased risk of acquiring HIV; and second, to provide treatment, care, and support services to individuals who are already living with HIV. In practical terms, the announcement is positioned to fund on-the-ground program implementation in Tanzania, supporting a range of service delivery and public health activities that align with PEPFAR and CDC priorities for reducing new infections, improving health outcomes for people with HIV, and ensuring sustained access to care and support.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement beyond simply issuing funds. In many CDC cooperative agreements, that involvement can include collaborative planning, technical guidance, monitoring and evaluation support, and coordination with national strategies and other partners. The activity category is Health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.067 (Global AIDS), placing it within CDC's global HIV/AIDS portfolio. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding, meaning awards are competitively made based on the application review process and program priorities.
On funding levels and scale, the announcement indicates that approximately 40,000,000 was expected to be available to support about seven awards. The opportunity data also lists an estimated total funding figure of 200,000,000, which can reflect broader projected amounts tied to the program line, potential multi-year totals, or aggregated figures in the posting, while the narrative highlights the approximate amount expected for the round of awards described. Individual awards were expected to range widely, with an award floor of 200,000 and an award ceiling of 6,000,000, suggesting CDC anticipated a mix of projects of different sizes, scopes, and implementation footprints. The expected number of awards is seven, which implies a relatively selective portfolio designed to cover key geographic areas, service delivery channels, or technical approaches without spreading funding too thinly.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement. In practice, that often allows applications from domestic or international organizations, including nonprofit organizations, universities, for-profit entities, and other institutions capable of implementing large-scale public health programs. The posting states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute a specific non-federal share as a condition of receiving the award, though leveraging partnerships and existing resources is often viewed positively in global health implementation proposals.
The timeline provided in the announcement is specific and time-bound. The opportunity was posted on March 30, 2009, with a closing date of May 28, 2009, and applications due by 5:00 pm Eastern Time on the closing date. The estimated funding date was stated as prior to September 30, 2009, indicating CDC intended to make awards before the end of the U.S. federal fiscal year. The opportunity was later archived on June 27, 2009, which is consistent with the typical lifecycle of competitive grant postings after the submission and review window closes.
For applicants seeking the official requirements, CDC directed prospective applicants to consult the complete announcement on Grants.gov via the provided link. For access problems with the full announcement, the contact listed is CDC's Procurement and Grants Office TIMS, with a phone number (770-488-2700) and a general email contact. Overall, the opportunity is a substantial PEPFAR-aligned investment intended to support organizations capable of delivering HIV prevention interventions for high-risk populations while also scaling effective treatment, clinical care, and wraparound support services for people living with HIV in Tanzania, under CDC's cooperative agreement framework.
