Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under PEPFAR, is a discretionary grant program set up as a cooperative agreement. Its central goal is to support the implementation of evidence-based HIV prevention interventions in the United Republic of Tanzania, with a clear public health focus on preventing new HIV infections and reducing HIV transmission. In practical terms, applicants are expected to propose proven prevention approaches rather than experimental or purely conceptual activities, and to implement them in ways that fit Tanzanian realities and contribute to measurable reductions in HIV risk and onward transmission.

CDC anticipates making up to five awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding level of USD 10,000,000 across all awards. The stated award ceiling is USD 540,000 per award, and the award floor is listed as USD 0, indicating that CDC did not set a minimum award size. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility, although strong proposals often still describe how activities will be sustained or leveraged with other resources. Because the mechanism is a cooperative agreement, recipients should also expect substantial involvement from CDC during implementation, such as collaboration on technical strategy, monitoring, evaluation, and alignment with PEPFAR priorities and national HIV programming.

The opportunity is tied to CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS). It was originally posted on January 25, 2012, with a creation date of March 23, 2012. The original closing date was March 27, 2012, later extended to April 10, 2012. The archive date is May 10, 2012, meaning the solicitation is no longer open; however, it remains useful as a reference for the types of activities, partners, and compliance expectations CDC has historically funded in Tanzania for HIV prevention under PEPFAR.

Eligibility is broad and includes many organization types, with a specific invitation for Tanzanian organizations to apply. Eligible applicants span nonprofit organizations (both with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit entities (including those other than small businesses), small businesses (including small, minority-, and women-owned businesses), universities and colleges (public and private), research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. Government entities are also eligible, including state and local governments and their political subdivisions, as well as city, township, county, and special district governments. The eligibility list also includes tribal governments and tribal health-related entities, and it explicitly allows non-U.S. (non-domestic) entities. For applicants applying as a bona fide agent of a state or local government, the announcement requires a legal, binding agreement documenting that status to be included with the application submission through Grants.gov.

Administratively, the funding opportunity number is CDC-RFA-GH12-1236, and the activity category is Health. The announcement directs applicants to the Full Announcement for complete details and notes that the additional information link shown is not active.
