Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS KAM SMGCG FY18
The PEPFAR Uganda Community Grants to Combat HIV/AIDS opportunity is a U.S. Department of State (U.S. Mission to Uganda, Embassy Kampala) small-grants program that funds community-level projects focused on HIV/AIDS prevention, care, and treatment across Uganda. It is run through the PEPFAR Uganda Small Grants Office and is offered as an open competition, meaning eligible organizations can apply without needing an invitation or pre-selection. The overall intent is to support practical, on-the-ground interventions that help reduce HIV transmission, strengthen access to services, and improve outcomes for people affected by HIV.
Projects funded under this opportunity are expected to directly advance HIV/AIDS programming in Uganda, with an emphasis on prevention activities as well as strengthening care and treatment support at the community level. While the notice does not list specific allowable activities in detail, it clearly frames the program around initiatives that improve HIV prevention, care, and treatment uptake and continuity, which typically includes community outreach, education, linkage to services, adherence and retention support, stigma reduction approaches, and locally tailored efforts that address barriers to accessing HIV services.
The grant specifically highlights three priority beneficiary groups. First are Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVCs), reflecting a focus on children and adolescents affected by HIV and related vulnerabilities who may need protective services and support to maintain health, stability, and access to care. Second are Key Populations (KPs), a category commonly used in HIV programming to refer to groups that face higher HIV risk and heightened barriers to care due to stigma, discrimination, or legal and social challenges. Third are men and young males, signaling a priority to address persistent gaps in HIV testing, treatment initiation, and sustained engagement in care among men and boys, and to promote prevention behaviors in these populations.
Eligibility is aimed at registered, non-profit Ugandan organizations with a community footprint, including Community Based Organizations (CBOs), Faith Based Organizations (FBOs), and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). The listing indicates eligibility under an "Others" category with further clarification referenced in the original eligibility section, but the main message is that local, registered non-profit entities in Uganda are the intended applicants, aligning the program with community-led implementation.
From the funding details provided, the instrument type is a grant and the funding activity category is health, with CFDA number 19.029. The award ceiling is listed as USD 25,000 per award, indicating relatively small, community-scale project budgets. The opportunity also anticipates a large number of awards (expected awards: 400), suggesting the program is designed to distribute modest funding across many local organizations rather than concentrating resources into a small number of large projects. The opportunity was created on August 1, 2017, and the original application closing date was October 31, 2017, under funding opportunity number DOS KAM SMGCG FY18.Apply for DOS KAM SMGCG FY18
