Opportunity Summary:
The Youth Stewardship grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P12PAC21221) was issued by the National Park Service as a continuation funding notice to support youth stewardship work connected to the Urban Archeology Corps. The program focus sits in the Education activity category and is specifically framed around engaging young people in stewardship activities tied to urban archaeology and related National Park Service goals. Rather than functioning as a broad, open competition, the announcement operates primarily as an administrative step to continue an existing effort, emphasizing ongoing youth stewardship programming rather than launching a new initiative.
This opportunity was categorized as a continuation and used a grant funding instrument. The announcement indicated an expected award count of one, with an estimated total funding amount of $46,000 and an award ceiling of $50,000 (no stated minimum award floor). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to provide matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The intended eligible applicant type listed was a nonprofit organization with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education, although the eligibility notes make clear that the practical intent was to fund a specific organization through an existing agreement mechanism.
A key detail in the eligibility information is that this posting was a notice of intent to award a task agreement under an existing cooperative agreement (H2495090024) for the youth stewardship program, specifically naming Groundwork USA as the intended recipient. In other words, while the opportunity is presented in the standard grants format, it was not designed as an open solicitation inviting multiple applicants to compete. Instead, it served to provide public notice that the National Park Service planned to proceed with continued support for the established youth stewardship work through Groundwork USA.
The timeline reflects that limited, notice-oriented purpose. The opportunity was posted and created on April 11, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 23, 2012. The announcement states that the closing date window (10 days) was set to provide notice of intent of award for the continuation of youth stewardship. The archive date was May 23, 2012, indicating that the listing was subsequently closed and archived after the notice period.
