Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), is designed to strengthen and sustain Guyana's national response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The announcement is formally listed as CDC RFA PS09-920 and focuses on consolidating and coordinating efforts that support continued HIV care, treatment, and prevention activities across the country. At its core, the opportunity is meant to help the national program maintain momentum while expanding what is already working, with a clear emphasis on tighter coordination, stronger systems, and better-managed implementation in partnership with other donors.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. In practical terms, that generally reflects an arrangement where the recipient carries out the day-to-day work but coordinates closely with CDC on planning, technical approaches, monitoring, and other programmatic elements. The activity category is health, and the related CFDA listing is 93.067 (Global AIDS), aligning it directly with international HIV/AIDS efforts supported by the U.S. government.
Funding is projected at approximately USD 1,006,000 in total, with the intent to make a single award. The award range is set with a floor of USD 750,000 and a ceiling of USD 1,006,000, signaling that the full amount was expected to go to one main recipient depending on the final approved budget and scope. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute a set portion of funds from non-federal sources as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is extremely limited: the Ministry of Health of Guyana is the only entity eligible to apply. This makes the opportunity essentially a targeted funding action intended to directly support the country's central health authority rather than a competitive solicitation open to multiple organizations. While the Ministry of Health is the applicant and lead implementer, the program description makes it clear that work is expected to be carried out in partnership with other donors, implying coordination with other funding streams and stakeholders operating in Guyana's HIV landscape.
Programmatically, the grant aims to support both service-related HIV activities (continued care, treatment, and prevention) and the institutional strengthening needed to run those services effectively at a national scale. The announcement emphasizes improving management and administrative systems that underpin HIV/AIDS activities, which commonly includes strengthening planning and coordination structures, improving monitoring and evaluation and reporting capacity, reinforcing financial and grants management practices, and improving program oversight so that prevention and treatment efforts are delivered consistently and accountably. The idea is not just to fund direct service delivery, but to bolster the systems that make national HIV programming more sustainable and better coordinated over time.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on May 14, 2009, with an application closing date of June 26, 2009, and an archive date of July 26, 2009. The estimated funding date was stated as prior to September 30, 2009, indicating an intent to obligate funds before the end of the U.S. federal fiscal year.
