OpportunityTitle: 2019 Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program
CategoryExplanation: Public Diplomacy
Description: The U.S. Embassy South Africa Public Affairs Section, U.S. Department of State (PAS) is pleased to announce a call for proposals for a grantee to manage between 20 and 40 small grants on behalf of the U.S. Embassy. Activities will include developing a small grant application process, overseeing application submissions, conducting outreach and networking with prospective partner organizations, and coordinating a review process and schedule. All activities will be conducted in close coordination with PAS. For approved small grants, the grantee will enter into sub-award agreements, oversee the transfer of funds, and monitor and evaluate the small grants though their project lifecycles. It is anticipated that the 20&#8211;40 awards will vary in amount, and in geographic reach, with most in the $3,000 - $8,000 range. As a Cooperative Agreement, PAS will be substantially involved in the program activities, to include the selection process. PAS seeks a partner with capacity to work at the national level, but will consider multiple awards if a single grantee cannot work with sub-grantees in all geographic areas. Please disregard the note on the forms page, &#8220;If you are applying for a grant, please complete and submit your application using Grants.gov Workspace.&#8221; Applications should be emailed to PretoriaGrants@state.gov.
