Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service FY 15 Preserve America Youth Summit grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP15AC00317) was issued by the National Park Service as a discretionary funding notice using a cooperative agreement. It is presented as a notice of intent for a noncompetitive award, meaning the agency is signaling in advance that it plans to make a single award without an open competition, consistent with the Department of the Interior's internal policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. The opportunity falls under the Education activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, reflecting a focus on youth engagement connected to conservation and stewardship themes.
Funding for the project was estimated at a total of $80,000, with one expected award. No cost sharing or matching funds were required. The listing does not specify an award ceiling or floor (both shown as $0), which typically indicates that the formal funding range was either not set in the public synopsis or was defined in the full announcement attachment rather than in the summary fields. The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education, which suggests the intended recipient is a qualifying nonprofit positioned to plan and implement youth-focused programming aligned with the Preserve America Youth Summit concept.
Key dates show this was a short-window posting: it was posted and created on March 20, 2015, with an original and current closing date of March 24, 2015, and an archive date of April 23, 2015. That compressed timeline is consistent with a notice of intent and noncompetitive approach, where the agency is not running a typical open solicitation but instead documenting and formalizing its intent to proceed with a specific cooperative agreement.
For applicants or stakeholders needing the complete details, the synopsis directs readers to an attached announcement for additional information. For access issues, the listed point of contact was Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2303.
