Opportunity Summary:
The PRM NGO Programs Assisting Refugees in Thailand opportunity is a U.S. government funding announcement from the Department of State's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) focused on humanitarian support for refugee populations living in camps in Thailand. Funding is offered on a discretionary basis, primarily through a Cooperative Agreement, and the work is categorized broadly as refugee assistance under CFDA 19.511 (Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for East Asia). The program is designed to fund practical, on-the-ground services in specific refugee camp locations, with PRM setting separate proposal deadlines based on the type of assistance and the target camps.
The announcement is structured around three distinct submission deadlines tied to different service needs and camp sites. Proposals for health care and other forms of assistance in the Ban Mae Nai Soi and Ban Mae Surin camps (Mae Hong Son, site 12) were due first, with a deadline of December 16. A second deadline of February 1 was set specifically for proposals addressing food assistance. The final deadline, April 1, covered proposals for health care services as well as water, sanitation, and other assistance in Umpiem Mai, Nu Po, and Ban Don Yang camps. The listing of multiple deadlines matters because PRM is signaling that it is allocating attention and resources in phases, and applicants need to align their project scope to the correct service category, camp location, and due date rather than assuming one general closing date covers all program components.
Eligible applicants include two main groups: U.S.-based nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (excluding institutions of higher education) and international organizations. The notice also indicates that submissions from international organizations are handled under PRM's established authorities and procedures for voluntary contributions, which can affect how funding is processed and administered compared to standard NGO cooperative agreements. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which generally lowers the barrier to entry for organizations that may not have the ability to contribute significant non-federal funds but can demonstrate strong program capacity and impact.
In terms of funding size, PRM set a minimum award level (floor) of $100,000 and a maximum (ceiling) of $5,000,000. This wide range suggests PRM anticipated both smaller targeted interventions and larger multi-service or multi-camp efforts, depending on the applicant's operational footprint, technical expertise, and the scale of the proposed response. The opportunity was posted on November 16, 2007, and the final closing date for the last set of activities was April 1, 2008, with the overall opportunity later archived on August 1, 2008. While the announcement summary highlights key service areas like health care, food assistance, and WASH (water and sanitation), it explicitly directs applicants to consult the full funding opportunity announcement for detailed requirements, expectations, and any camp-specific or sector-specific guidance that may govern allowable activities, reporting, coordination, and performance measures.
For applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Erica Thibault, Program Officer, reachable by phone at (202) 663-1043, with a PRM contact email referenced in the notice. The funding opportunity number associated with this announcement is PRM-ANE-08-CA-EAP-111607, which applicants would typically use when searching for the opportunity in official systems or when corresponding with PRM about application questions or submission logistics.
