Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Youth Intern for Centennial Projects in Administration" (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00650) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal participation. The program is categorized under an education activity area and is associated with CFDA number 15.931.
The purpose of the project is administrative support for Centennial Projects within the National Park Service Southeast Region (SERO). Based on the title and the description provided, the work centers on placing or supporting a youth intern who would assist with administrative tasks tied to NPS Centennial Projects, which were initiatives connected to the National Park Service centennial era. While the short description does not list specific duties, "administrative support" in this context typically refers to office and program support functions that help a regional office coordinate, track, and deliver project activities.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have IRS 501(c)(3) status and are not institutions of higher education. The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a maximum funding amount (Award Ceiling) of $49,268. This indicates the funding is relatively small and targeted, consistent with a focused internship or short-term support project rather than a large multi-site program.
A key feature of this notice is that it is not an open solicitation. The original closing language makes clear it is a "Notice of Intent to Award" and explicitly states it is not a request for applications. In practical terms, this means the National Park Service is announcing it intends to fund a specific project and recipient without full and open competition, and other organizations should not expect to submit proposals under this notice. The opportunity was created on September 16, 2016, and the intent of the posting is primarily transparency and public notice rather than inviting new applicants.
