Opportunity Summary:

The Learning and Insight Project @ The Wing (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00508) is a National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of the Interior notice of intent to award, posted to publicly document the agency's plan to provide funding for a specific project without full and open competition. In practical terms, this announcement is not a call for proposals and does not invite new applications. Instead, it serves as transparency notice that the NPS intends to support a defined set of project activities through an existing partnership arrangement with a named organization.

The funding mechanism identified is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a typical grant where the recipient operates more independently. The notice references Task Agreement P16AC01439 issued under an existing Cooperative Agreement P13AC01348, indicating the work is being funded as an add-on or continuation within an already established federal assistance relationship. The intended recipient is the Wing Luke Museum of the Pacific Asian American Experience, a nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status, and the project title is explicitly stated as Learning and Insight Project @ The Wing.

From a programmatic standpoint, the opportunity is categorized under discretionary funding and aligns primarily with education activities, with an additional "other" category noted in the listing (with clarification typically provided in a separate explanation field on the original posting). The CFDA number associated with the award is 15.954, which identifies the federal assistance program area under which the funds are being provided. The listing indicates the agency is expecting to make one award, and the maximum anticipated federal funding amount (the award ceiling) is $30,000.

The timeline details reinforce that this is not an open competition. The creation date for the notice is August 17, 2016, and the "closing date" field is effectively replaced with a statement clarifying there is no application period because applications are not being accepted. Overall, this posting functions as a formal public record that the NPS plans to fund a specific educational project at The Wing via a cooperative agreement action tied to an existing agreement, rather than running a standard competitive grant process.
