Opportunity Summary:

The Strengthening Blood Donor Associations in Mozambique under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-GH12-1223) is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary funding program focused on improving health outcomes through stronger community structures that support blood donation in Mozambique. It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement during implementation rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The program sits within the broader PEPFAR framework and is authorized under U.S. laws that establish and reauthorize the United States' global HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria efforts, specifically Public Law 108-25 (the 2003 Leadership Act) and Public Law 110-293 (the 2008 reauthorization). While the title emphasizes blood donor associations, the connection to PEPFAR reflects the larger public health objective of strengthening systems that contribute to safer, more reliable blood supplies, which is an important component of HIV prevention and overall health service delivery.

In practical terms, this opportunity was designed to support the work of Mozambican community-based organizations that are already active in promoting blood donation in coordination with the Ministry of Health. Eligibility is tightly defined: applicants must be Mozambican community-based organizations that have been working with Mozambique's Ministry of Health on blood donation promotion, must be officially recognized by the Ministry of Health, and must also be legally recognized by the Government of Mozambique. The announcement also references the concept of a "Bona Fide Agent," meaning an organization can apply on behalf of a state or local government under certain conditions, but only if it provides formal documentation of that relationship through a legally binding agreement submitted with the application materials.

The funding mechanism provides for a single expected award, indicating the CDC anticipated selecting one primary implementing partner for this work. The estimated total funding listed for the opportunity is $650,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $0. No cost sharing or matching requirement is specified, so applicants were not expected to contribute a required financial match as a condition of eligibility. The program is categorized under the Health funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS), aligning it with U.S. global HIV/AIDS assistance programming.

Key administrative dates show that the opportunity was posted on March 23, 2012, with an application closing date of May 14, 2012, and an archive date of June 13, 2012. The creation date in the record is April 7, 2012. Since the listing is archived, it functionally serves as a historical notice rather than an open call, but it still provides useful information about the CDC's priorities at that time and the types of organizations it sought to fund for blood donation mobilization and community engagement in Mozambique.

For applicants or interested parties who needed help accessing the full announcement, the notice provided a direct CDC contact through the Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), including an email address (pgotim@cdc.gov) and phone number (770-488-2700). This suggests the CDC expected electronic access via Grants.gov but offered support for technical or access-related issues.
