Opportunity Summary:
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HQ0034 10 1 0001) was a congressionally directed, one-time assistance award administered by the U.S. Department of Defense under CFDA 12.599, labeled "Congressionally Directed Assistance." It was issued as an earmark-style grant rather than an open competitive program, meaning it was created to provide funding to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund as specified by Congress. The legal authority cited for the award was Section 8085 of the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (Public Law 111-118), which is the appropriations language that enabled this directed support.
In terms of funding structure, the opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with total estimated funding of $985,000. Both the award ceiling and award floor were set at exactly $985,000, indicating the grant amount was fixed rather than a range, and reinforcing that this was intended for a specific recipient and purpose. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant.
Eligibility was listed broadly as "Others," but the eligibility clarification repeats that the assistance was congressionally directed for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund under the stated authority. Practically, this type of listing generally functions as a targeted award to the named organization rather than inviting applications from the general public, nonprofits at large, universities, or state and local governments.
The announcement was posted and created on March 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 31, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on June 30, 2010, which typically means the application window had passed and the listing was retained for recordkeeping and transparency rather than continued solicitation.
For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was James Radford, Grants Specialist, reachable at 703-588-1441.
