Opportunity Summary:

The Rosie the Riveter Youth Partnership Program (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIRORI100021) is a National Park Service discretionary funding opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement to support hands-on youth conservation work and public education at Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park in Richmond, California. The project centers on the historic SS Red Oak Victory ship and is designed to pair physical preservation efforts with the creation of an interpretive, youth-focused educational program that highlights the ship's significance and the broader World War II home front story.

This announcement is presented as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning the agency indicated its intention to make an award to a specific partner: the Student Conservation Association. The funded work would involve organizing and supervising a youth group crew to help restore, preserve, and improve a section of the SS Red Oak Victory. Alongside the restoration component, the project includes developing interpretive and educational programming led or shaped by youth, with content tied to key historical themes connected to the ship and the wartime home front experience, including the people and industries that supported the war effort.

The opportunity falls under CFDA 15.931, Conservation Activities by Youth Service Organizations, and is categorized under community development activities. The expected number of awards is one, with total estimated funding of $30,000. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $30,000, indicating a single fixed award amount rather than a range. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so the recipient would be expected to contribute matching resources, which could include allowable cash or in-kind support depending on the final agreement terms.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The opportunity was posted on June 23, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 24, 2010, and an archive date of July 24, 2010, reflecting the short window typical of notices that are tied to an intended recipient. Additional details were made available through Grants.gov, and applicants or interested parties needing access assistance were directed to contact Tekla Vines, Contract Specialist, at 707-951-4872 or teklavines@nps.gov.
