Opportunity Summary:

The Uganda Stop Malaria Project funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 617 08 010) is a USAID/Uganda discretionary grant competition focused on health programming, specifically malaria prevention and control efforts in Uganda. The opportunity is being offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the recipient would implement program activities with substantial involvement from USAID during the life of the award (for example, coordination on technical direction, monitoring expectations, and key deliverables). The announcement notes that "RFA Amendment 01" has been issued, and its purpose is to provide official answers to questions that potential applicants submitted, which usually clarifies proposal requirements, eligibility details, budget rules, or technical approach expectations.

USAID anticipated making a single award under this solicitation, with both the award floor and award ceiling set at $45,000,000. In practical terms, that indicates the agency expected one project of roughly that exact total value rather than a range of possible award sizes. The Assistance Listing/CFDA reference provided is 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas), which is the standard catalog listing used for many USAID overseas assistance activities.

The competition was listed as open eligibility ("unrestricted"), meaning any type of organization could apply as long as it met any additional conditions described in the full solicitation text (the summary indicates that further clarification could exist in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section). The funding opportunity also requires cost sharing or matching, so applicants would need to propose some level of non-federal contribution (cash, in-kind, or other allowable forms) consistent with whatever percentage and rules were set out in the full RFA. For many USAID awards, the specific match requirements, what qualifies, and how it must be documented are detailed in the solicitation and later enforced through award conditions.

Key dates in the notice show it was posted on May 15, 2008, with a creation date of June 13, 2008. The original and current closing date were both July 9, 2008, meaning the deadline did not change as a result of the amendment. The archive date was August 8, 2008, which typically indicates when the opportunity was formally moved to an archived status after the closing period passed.

The administering agency is USAID in Kampala, Uganda. For help accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Sam Nagwere, an Acquisition and Assistance Specialist at USAID/Uganda, reachable by phone at 256 41 306001. The email line appears truncated in the source text ("SamN"), suggesting the complete email address was likely available in the original posting or attached documents.
