Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006359
The grant opportunity titled 20.PMWRA.Angola.HMA.NOFO (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006359) is a U.S. Department of State funding announcement focused on supporting humanitarian mine action in Angola during fiscal year 2020. It is administered by the Department of State's Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, specifically the Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA), the office that oversees U.S. assistance for clearing landmines and other explosive hazards, reducing risks to civilians, and enabling safe access to land and infrastructure.
This opportunity is a discretionary grant, meaning proposals compete against one another rather than being awarded automatically by formula. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," which in this context aligns with humanitarian demining and weapons removal-related activities rather than a standard domestic program label. The program is associated with CFDA number 19.800, which generally covers U.S. government foreign assistance initiatives managed by the Department of State in this space.
The purpose of the award is to fund the implementation of humanitarian demining programs in Angola. While the notice indicates that specific goals, objectives, and technical requirements are provided elsewhere in the full announcement, the core intent is clear: support operational mine action work that reduces the threat from landmines and explosive remnants of war, improves human security, and helps communities safely use land and resources that may currently be blocked or dangerous due to contamination.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. In practical terms, this means eligible applicants are U.S.-recognized charitable nonprofits (other than colleges and universities) that can demonstrate the technical capability and administrative capacity to manage a federally funded humanitarian demining project in Angola, including compliance with U.S. government grant requirements.
The funding level anticipated under this opportunity is up to USD 2,100,000 as the award ceiling, with PM/WRA expecting to make one award. That structure suggests a single implementing partner would likely be selected to carry out the proposed Angola-focused mine action program under this competition, though final award decisions would depend on proposal quality, alignment with program priorities, and available funds.
Key timing information included in the notice shows the opportunity was created on January 14, 2020, with an original application closing date of March 31, 2020. In short, this was a time-bound FY2020 competition intended to identify one qualified nonprofit implementer to deliver humanitarian demining activities in Angola with a budget that could reach approximately $2.1 million.Apply for SFOP0006359
