Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00525
The National Fossil Day and Earth Science Week Outreach Projects opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00525) is a National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement tied to the Department of the Interior. It focuses on education-based outreach that promotes geology and paleontology and supports activities connected to the NPS Paleontology Program. The core idea is to use major public-engagement events such as Earth Science Week and National Fossil Day as vehicles for delivering earth science and fossil-related learning opportunities to a broad range of people, including educators and students, and to intentionally reach diverse urban audiences who may not otherwise engage with National Park sites or programs. In other words, the outreach is meant to extend beyond park boundaries and meet people where they are through coordinated programming and collaboration.
This listing is categorized as a discretionary funding opportunity with the funding instrument type listed as a cooperative agreement, meaning the work is typically carried out in partnership with the federal agency with an expectation of substantial involvement by NPS in planning, coordination, or implementation. The activity category is education, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.954. The opportunity indicates an anticipated single award with an award ceiling of $103,490.
Eligibility is specified for nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. However, this particular notice functions as a Notice of Intent rather than an open solicitation. The posting explains that no applications are being accepted because the task agreement is being awarded under an existing cooperative agreement (P15AC01127) that had already been awarded through a competitive process. The creation date for the opportunity is August 14, 2018, and the original closing date field reinforces that it is not open for new submissions at this time.
Overall, the opportunity reflects NPS priorities around public education and stewardship by leveraging high-visibility outreach moments to build earth science literacy, raise awareness of paleontological resources, and connect national-level programs to schools, communities, and audiences outside traditional park visitorship.Apply for P18AS00525
