Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) funding opportunity titled "Special History of World War II Activities in Pacific Island Park Units" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIPWR100016) is a discretionary cooperative agreement intended to support an education-focused historical research project. The core purpose of the project is to examine and document military activities that took place in the early 1940s within national park units in Hawaii, with particular emphasis on park sites that are not primarily dedicated to World War II interpretation or commemoration. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at expanding the historical record and interpretive understanding of how the war period affected a broader range of park landscapes in Hawaii beyond the well-known WWII-centered locations.
Funding for the project is fixed and tightly defined. The NPS anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $41,250. The award ceiling and award floor are both listed as $41,250, which indicates a single, set budget amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The assistance mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically signals that NPS expected to have substantial involvement in the project’s planning, coordination, or review compared with a standard grant. The opportunity was posted on September 8, 2010, and had an original and current closing date of September 10, 2010, reflecting a very short application window. The opportunity was archived on October 10, 2010.
For applicants or interested parties seeking the complete announcement details, the listing pointed to Grants.gov as the additional information source. The designated contact for access issues was Tekla Vines, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 707-951-4872 or by email at teklavines@nps.gov.
