Opportunity Information: Apply for DEMCOM FY18 03
The Democracy Commission Small Grants Program Competition (Funding Opportunity Number: DEMCOM FY18 03) is a U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Armenia grant opportunity administered through the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan. The program is presented as a small-grants competition, with projects funded through either a grant or a cooperative agreement. The opportunity is tied to CFDA number 19.900 and is listed under a broad “Other” activity category, with the details and thematic priorities directed to the official Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) posted on the embassy website. Funding is explicitly stated as being subject to the availability of funds, meaning awards are not guaranteed even if applications meet the basic requirements.
In terms of funding size and scale, the announcement lists an award ceiling of $50,000 and anticipates making around 10 awards. This indicates the program is designed to support a set of relatively modest, targeted projects rather than a single large initiative. Because the instrument type can be either a grant or a cooperative agreement, applicants should be prepared for the possibility of more active involvement or oversight by the embassy in the case of a cooperative agreement, depending on the project design and the terms set during award.
Applications were required to be written in English and submitted electronically through a dedicated application portal hosted by the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan. The deadline for submission was August 1, 2018, at 1800 local time. The notice emphasizes that only applications submitted before the deadline would be considered, so late submissions would not move forward in the review process. After an applicant submits through the portal, the system provides a notification confirming successful submission, which serves as the applicant’s immediate proof that the application was received through the required channel.
The opportunity also specifies a set of required supporting documents that must be included with the application package. These attachments include a one-page CV or resume for key personnel proposed for the program, which helps evaluators understand who will implement the project and whether the team has relevant experience. It also requires letters of support from program partners that clearly describe each partner’s roles and responsibilities, signaling that partnership claims need to be documented and specific rather than informal. If an organization intends to charge indirect costs under a Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA), and includes those charges in the budget, the latest NICRA must be uploaded as a PDF to justify those indirect cost calculations. Finally, applicants must include official registration documents, which typically function as proof of legal status and eligibility to receive and manage grant funds.
Eligibility is broadly indicated in the source data as “Others,” with applicants directed to the NOFO for the precise eligibility rules and any additional restrictions or preferences. The announcement repeatedly points applicants to the embassy’s posted NOFO for the most specific program guidance, including what kinds of democracy-related activities are prioritized, how proposals will be evaluated, and any compliance or administrative requirements beyond the basic submission instructions.Apply for DEMCOM FY18 03
