Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) posted a discretionary funding notice titled "Support Assistance for Education Programming" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS 15 NERO 0063) to announce that a cooperative agreement award had already been made. It is not a request for applications and was not open for competitive submissions; the posting functions strictly as a public notice that funding was awarded to The American Civil War Museum to support education programming connected to NPS sites and visitor services.
The award is a single cooperative agreement (Expected Awards: 1) with total funding of $30,000, and both the award ceiling and floor are $30,000, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range. The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.946, Cultural Resources Management, and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds. The notice was posted and created on June 17, 2015, had an original and current closing date of June 26, 2015, and was archived on June 27, 2015, reflecting the short administrative window typical of award-announcement postings rather than an open application period.
Although the listing names eligible applicants generally as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education), the eligibility language repeatedly clarifies that the award has already been issued to The American Civil War Museum. The museum's role under the cooperative agreement is described as providing practical, on-the-ground support for NPS education programming. This includes complying with standard cooperative agreement terms; assisting NPS with developing a position description, hiring a new staff member, and paying that individual for services on a biweekly basis for as long as the position is needed; and helping NPS staff develop, update, and deliver education programs either at the NPS Visitor Center or directly on the battlefields.
The scope also emphasizes continuity of education services during facility disruptions, with the museum expected to provide adequate and safe space for education programming during closure periods. In addition, the museum is to coordinate with NPS on joint marketing and promotion of battlefield-based educational opportunities as a way for visitors and school groups to experience and learn about the Civil War. The agreement further requires active communication and operational coordination, such as keeping NPS informed about changes to building closures and work schedules far enough in advance for NPS to adjust programming, update materials, and change locations for scheduled school visits.
For administrative questions about accessing the full announcement, the notice lists Keith Zotti, Partnership Program Specialist, as the contact (phone: 215-597-9153).
