Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (CDC RFA PS10-10169) is a CDC discretionary funding announcement under CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS) and is funded through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). It was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC expected to play an active, hands-on role alongside the recipient rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The overall aim was to strengthen Tajikistan's National Blood Safety Program by helping ensure the country can provide a blood supply that is both safe (minimizing the risk of HIV and other transfusion-transmissible infections) and adequate (reliable availability of blood and blood products for patient needs). The focus on blood safety aligns closely with PEPFAR goals because unsafe transfusions can be a route of HIV transmission, and strengthening systems that prevent transfusion-related infections is a core public health strategy.
The announcement anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding level of $5,000,000 and an award ceiling of $1,000,000. The award floor was listed as $0, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on March 3, 2010, created on April 12, 2010, and originally closed on May 3, 2010, with the closing date later extended to May 24, 2010. The archive date was June 23, 2010. While the announcement was a federal funding opportunity, eligibility was effectively limited to a specific entity in-country: the Republican Blood Center, described as the only department within the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tajikistan with the mandate to implement and/or coordinate blood safety activities. In practice, this indicates the funding was intended to directly support the national-level institution responsible for coordinating the blood system, rather than being broadly competed among multiple organizations.
In terms of what the program was meant to accomplish, the central purpose was continuation and reinforcement of existing national blood safety activities rather than launching an entirely new system from scratch. Typical blood safety work under PEPFAR-supported national blood programs generally includes strengthening donor recruitment and retention practices (often with an emphasis on low-risk, voluntary, non-remunerated donation), improving screening and testing quality for transfusion-transmissible infections, standardizing procedures across blood collection and processing sites, implementing quality management systems, and improving training and oversight so that blood collection, testing, storage, and distribution meet consistent safety standards. Because it is a cooperative agreement, it also implies ongoing technical collaboration with CDC on planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation, which is commonly used when the funder expects substantial programmatic involvement and shared responsibility for outcomes.
The administering agency was the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For applicants or stakeholders who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was the PGO TIMS grants line at 770-488-2700 with a general email referenced in the notice. Overall, the opportunity was narrowly targeted, time-bounded, and designed to strengthen national systems for safe blood and blood products in Tajikistan as part of broader HIV prevention and health system support goals under PEPFAR.
