Opportunity Summary:
The Women in Military Service grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HQ0034 10 1 0004) was a Department of Defense grant tied to congressionally directed funding, meaning the award was specifically set aside by Congress for a named recipient rather than awarded through an open, competitive program. The funding was authorized under Section 8085 of the Department of Defense Appropriations Act for 2010 (Public Law 111-118) and was intended to support the Women in Military Service for America Memorial Foundation. In practical terms, this announcement functioned as a formal vehicle for releasing an earmarked appropriation to that organization under the federal grant framework.
This opportunity was categorized as an earmark and used the grant instrument type. It was listed under CFDA 12.599, Congressionally Directed Assistance, which is commonly used for legislatively specified projects and recipients. The announcement indicated there would be a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reinforcing that the funding was not designed for multiple applicants or a broader applicant pool. The eligible applicant category was effectively limited by the congressional direction described in the eligibility text, which again pointed to the Women in Military Service for America Memorial Foundation as the intended recipient.
The total funding amount was set at $1,576,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor were also $1,576,000. That structure signals that the award amount was predetermined rather than variable, as would be typical in a competitive grant where proposals can request different budgets. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not required to provide a non-federal match to access the full award amount.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on March 18, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 31, 2010. The opportunity was archived on June 30, 2010, which generally indicates the posting was closed and no longer active for application or administrative updates through the public listing. The sponsoring agency was the Department of Defense, and the description repeated the core purpose: to execute congressionally directed funding under the cited appropriations authority.
For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was James Radford, Contract Specialist, at 703-588-1441. This contact information suggests that questions were expected to be administrative or access-related rather than programmatic competition inquiries, which fits the earmarked nature of the opportunity.
