Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY21 02
The Alumni Small Grants Program is a discretionary grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Moldova (Funding Opportunity Number PAS CHISINAU FY21 02; CFDA 19.900). It is designed specifically to help alumni of U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs turn what they learned in the United States into concrete projects back home. The central idea is to support alumni as they promote new ideas, apply best practices, and share lessons and professional experiences gained during their exchange, in ways that benefit communities in Moldova and strengthen people-to-people ties. Across all supported activities, the program emphasizes the broader public diplomacy goal of increasing mutual understanding between U.S. and Moldovan citizens.
The program can fund a wide range of practical, community-oriented initiatives, including projects focused on professional development and community development. In other words, proposals can be tailored to many sectors as long as they clearly connect to an applicant's exchange experience and show how that experience will be translated into a well-organized local activity or series of activities with measurable public benefit. The award size is relatively small and targeted: typical grants fall in the range of USD 5,000 to USD 25,000, with an award ceiling of USD 25,000. The opportunity anticipated making around 10 awards under this competition cycle.
Because the opportunity was issued during the COVID-19 period, applicants are required to build in resilience and continuity planning. Each proposal should include a clear backup plan that explains how some or all project activities could be delivered online if in-person programming becomes unsafe or restricted. In practical terms, this means describing which elements can move to virtual formats (trainings, workshops, mentoring sessions, public talks, networking events, stakeholder meetings, dissemination activities), what platforms or tools would be used, how participants would be recruited and supported remotely, and how the project would maintain engagement and track results if activities are shifted partially or fully online.
A complete application package must include several mandatory components in the formats requested by the funder. First, applicants must use the official application format provided by the program in MS Word (made available for download in the Related Documents). Second, applicants must submit a detailed budget using the required MS Excel template (also downloadable). Third, the application must include a budget narrative in a free-form format that explains and justifies the costs in the spreadsheet (for example, clarifying assumptions, unit costs, roles, and why each line item is necessary to deliver the activities). Finally, CVs must be provided for any paid staff and experts who will be compensated under the grant, so reviewers can assess the qualifications and capacity of the proposed team. The funding opportunity was created on December 11, 2020, and the original closing date for submissions was February 11, 2021.Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY21 02
