Opportunity Summary:

This grant opportunity (CDC RFA GH11-1140) is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement funded under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to strengthen HIV services in Guyana, with a specific emphasis on faith-based affiliated service sites. The program is designed to provide both technical assistance and funding to local, indigenous Guyanese organizations so they can continue, improve, and expand comprehensive HIV prevention, care, and antiretroviral treatment (ART) activities. A major theme running through the opportunity is sustainability: the CDC is not only seeking service delivery, but also the strengthening of local capacity so that high-quality HIV programs can be maintained over time within the participating faith-based settings.

The intended program focus is comprehensive HIV programming rather than a single narrow intervention. That includes prevention services, clinical care, and treatment with ART, with the expectation that supported organizations will help ensure consistent, reliable access to quality services at faith-based affiliated sites. While the source summary does not list every allowable activity, the core purpose statement makes clear that the work is meant to keep existing services functioning and to extend coverage and quality where gaps exist, using technical support and resources to reinforce service delivery systems, clinical practice, and program implementation.

The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects substantial involvement during implementation compared with a standard grant. In practical terms, recipients should anticipate an ongoing working relationship with CDC that may include technical guidance, collaboration on program planning and performance monitoring, and alignment with PEPFAR program expectations for HIV service delivery. The activity category is health, and the CFDA listing provided is 93.067 (Global AIDS), reflecting its placement within U.S. global HIV assistance programming.

Eligibility is narrowly tailored to support localization. Applicants must be local indigenous Guyanese organizations that are fully registered in Guyana and meet the PEPFAR Local Partner Definition. The opportunity defines an indigenous organization as one that originated in and is located in the geographic area where it provides services, serves the local population, and has a majority of key organizational staff (senior, mid-level, and support positions) who are Guyanese. A wide range of local entity types can apply as long as they meet the indigenous and registration requirements, including local public and private nonprofit organizations, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations.

The opportunity anticipated making up to three awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,150,000. The notice indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for local organizations that may not have access to large unrestricted funds. The listing shows award ceiling and floor as $0, which usually signals that the specific award size limits were either not set in that summary field or were to be detailed in the full announcement rather than in the synopsis.

Key timeline information in the notice shows it was posted January 24, 2011, created February 24, 2011, with an original closing date of March 24, 2011, later extended to a current closing date of April 11, 2011. The archive date is May 11, 2011, indicating the opportunity is historical rather than currently open. For applicants at the time, the announcement directed users to consult the full announcement for complete requirements, and provided CDC Procurement and Grants Office technical contact information for access issues (CDC PGO TIMS at 770-488-2700).

In plain terms, the grant was built to shift resources and implementation responsibility toward capable local Guyanese partners, using CDC/PEPFAR support to maintain and scale HIV prevention and treatment services delivered through faith-based affiliated sites. The emphasis on local ownership, program continuity, and expansion of high-quality ART and care reflects broader PEPFAR goals of strengthening country-led responses while keeping service delivery stable and effective for communities relying on these facilities.
