Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00702
The Department of the Interior, National Park Service announced a grant-related action titled "Andersonville Crew and Interns to Restore Grave Sites and Cultural Landscape" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00702). The effort is framed as an education-focused cooperative agreement intended to support hands-on learning and practical workforce development within a National Park Service unit, specifically Andersonville National Historic Site (NHS). The core purpose is to place young people alongside the park's Facilities-Maintenance Division so they can participate in day-to-day operations while helping restore and care for grave sites and the broader cultural landscape. By embedding participants in real maintenance and preservation work, the project aims to build skills, deepen understanding of natural and cultural resource stewardship, and strengthen the next generation of caretakers for nationally significant historic places.
This opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the National Park Service in carrying out the project rather than a hands-off grant structure. The activity category is listed as education, reflecting that the project is not only about accomplishing physical restoration and maintenance outcomes, but also about structured experiential learning, mentoring, and exposure to professional standards used in managing historic landscapes and memorial settings within the National Park System.
The notice lists a maximum potential award amount (award ceiling) of $131,180 and anticipates making a single award. It is tied to CFDA number 15.931, which is associated with National Park Service assistance programs. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) and other eligible entities as further described in the opportunity's eligibility clarification. The creation date for the notice is August 21, 2017.
Importantly, this announcement is not a standard open call for proposals. The original closing date field explicitly states that it is not a request for application and that it is a notice of intent to make a restricted award. In practical terms, that means the agency is signaling its intention to fund a specific partner or a limited set of pre-identified recipients rather than soliciting competitive applications from the general public.Apply for P17AS00702
