Opportunity Summary:
The opportunity titled "Reproductive Health/Family Planning and Child Survival Services" is a USAID/Uganda discretionary funding announcement issued as a Cooperative Agreement under Funding Opportunity Number 617-08-014. It is tied to the USAID foreign assistance program catalog listing CFDA 98.001, which generally covers U.S. overseas assistance activities managed by USAID. The notice indicates that the announcement includes an amendment (Amendment 01) that posts responses to questions received from interested parties, which typically means clarifications were issued to help applicants interpret requirements, application instructions, or program expectations consistently.
In practical terms, this funding is aimed at supporting services and interventions in Uganda that focus on reproductive health and family planning alongside child survival activities. While the brief listing does not spell out the technical scope or target geographies, the title signals a combined health portfolio that often includes strengthening service delivery, improving access to and quality of family planning and reproductive health services, and implementing interventions that reduce child morbidity and mortality. Because it is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a grant, USAID would generally expect a higher level of substantial involvement during implementation, such as joint planning, technical oversight, approvals of key workplans, or collaboration on monitoring and evaluation, depending on what the full announcement specifies.
The estimated total funding and the maximum award amount are both listed as $39,000,000, with an award floor of $0, meaning the agency did not state a guaranteed minimum size for an individual award in the public synopsis. The presence of a cost sharing or matching requirement means applicants should expect to contribute some portion of the total program cost through cash and/or in-kind resources, as defined in the full solicitation. Cost share expectations can affect competitiveness and project design because they influence budgeting, sustainability plans, and the types of partnerships an applicant can credibly propose.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of entity unless the full text contains additional limitations or clarifications. In USAID announcements, that can include nonprofits, for-profits, universities, and other organizations, although the final determination always depends on the detailed eligibility language and any geographic or registration requirements in the full RFA.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on June 2, 2008, created on June 24, 2008, and had an original and current closing date of July 31, 2008, with an archive date of August 30, 2008. These dates indicate it was a time-limited competition and is now archived, but the record remains useful for understanding past USAID/Uganda procurement priorities and the scale of programming that was being competed at the time.
For assistance accessing the full announcement electronically, the contact listed is Sam Nagwere, an Acquisition and Assistance Specialist at USAID/Uganda, reachable by phone at 256 41 306001. The listing suggests that the amendment containing Q-and-A was important enough to highlight, which is often a sign that applicant questions addressed substantive points such as proposal format, allowable costs, cost share treatment, evaluation criteria, or interpretations of technical requirements.
