Opportunity Information: Apply for PD MVD GRANTS NOFO FY2023
The U.S. Embassy Montevideo Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity run through the Embassy's Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) in Uruguay. Rather than funding a single stand-alone public event or project directly, this opportunity is designed to select one primary organization to operate and administer the Embassy's small grants program on the Embassy's behalf, aligning those grantmaking decisions with the Embassy's strategic public diplomacy priorities. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Embassy expects to remain actively involved through consultation and coordination while the recipient carries out day-to-day program management.
Under this cooperative agreement, the selected recipient would be responsible for the full lifecycle of a small grants program. That includes publicizing the availability of small grants, receiving and managing incoming proposals, conducting proposal reviews, communicating with applicants, issuing and tracking payments, maintaining complete financial and administrative records, and conducting monitoring and evaluation of supported activities. In practice, the grantee acts as the program administrator and grants manager, building and running the procedures needed to make the small grants program function smoothly, transparently, and in line with U.S. government requirements and Embassy guidance.
The program also allows the primary recipient to make sub-awards (subgrants) to other organizations in order to implement the individual projects that the small grants program funds. However, the primary recipient remains fully accountable for how those subrecipients perform and how they spend funds. The opportunity emphasizes compliance and oversight: the prime awardee must monitor subrecipients, keep adequate documentation showing that subrecipients followed the terms and conditions of their awards, and be able to provide those records to the U.S. government upon request. This includes maintaining documentation about how subrecipients were selected (selection methodology) as well as the prime recipient's internal policies and practices for issuing and monitoring sub-awards.
Key details from the published notice include the funding opportunity title (U.S. Embassy Montevideo Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program) and number (PD MVD GRANTS NOFO FY2023). It is a discretionary opportunity funded by the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Uruguay, and categorized under CFDA/Assistance Listing 19.040. The maximum award amount listed is $250,000, and the Embassy anticipated making one award, meaning a single organization would be chosen to administer the small grants program. Eligibility is aimed at nonprofit organizations, including those with IRS 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in both cases), with an additional eligibility category labeled "Others" as referenced in the notice. The opportunity was created on October 31, 2022, with an original application deadline of December 30, 2022.
Overall, this is best understood as an administrative and program management grant: the main deliverable is a well-run, compliant, Embassy-aligned small grants mechanism that can solicit, select, fund, and oversee multiple public diplomacy projects through sub-awards, backed by strong financial controls, documented decision-making, and measurable monitoring and evaluation.Apply for PD MVD GRANTS NOFO FY2023
