Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on strengthening blood safety in the Republic of Kazakhstan by supporting the country s National Blood Safety Program. The central goal is to help ensure that Kazakhstan has a safe and adequate supply of blood and blood products, which is a critical public health function and also an important HIV prevention measure because unsafe transfusions can transmit HIV and other infections. The award is designed to support implementation level work, meaning practical activities that improve how blood is collected, tested, processed, stored, and distributed within the national system, rather than purely research or planning.
The program is titled Supporting the Republican Blood Center in the Implementation of Blood Safety Activities in the Republic of Kazakhstan under the President s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The Republican Blood Center is identified as the only eligible applicant because it is the sole department within the Ministry of Health with the formal mandate to implement and or coordinate national blood safety activities. In other words, this announcement is effectively a targeted opportunity intended to fund the national entity responsible for blood safety oversight and coordination, rather than an open competition among multiple organizations.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond standard grant oversight. In practice, this often includes technical collaboration, joint planning, performance monitoring, and alignment with PEPFAR and CDC program standards. While the announcement summary does not list detailed workplan components, the stated purpose signals continued support for an existing national effort, implying a focus on sustaining and improving systems and practices that directly affect blood safety and supply sufficiency.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of 5,000,000 with an award ceiling of 1,000,000 and an award floor of 0, and it anticipates making 1 award. This suggests a multi year or multi budget period funding structure where total projected support could reach 5 million across the full project period, with up to 1 million available per budget period depending on CDC approvals and annual allocations. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces financial barriers for the implementing entity and indicates the program is intended to be fully supported with federal funds within the authorized scope.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified as CDC RFA PS10 10168 and is tied to CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS). It was posted on March 3, 2010, with a creation date of April 12, 2010. The original closing date was May 30, 2010, later updated to May 24, 2010, and the archive date is June 23, 2010, meaning the solicitation is no longer active today but remains relevant as a historical record of CDC PEPFAR investments in blood safety systems. For applicant support at the time, CDC provided a grants support contact through PGO TIMS Grants, with a phone number and a general email for access issues related to the full electronic announcement.
Overall, this opportunity reflects a public health capacity building investment: it is aimed at maintaining and enhancing national blood safety infrastructure and operations through the Republican Blood Center, with CDC partnership and oversight, to reduce transfusion related infectious risks and ensure reliable access to safe blood products across Kazakhstan.
