Opportunity Information: Apply for ALUMNI FY23 ARM1
The U.S. Alumni Outreach Fund (Funding Opportunity Number: ALUMNI FY23 ARM1) is a discretionary grant competition offered by the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Mission to Armenia (U.S. Embassy Yerevan). The program is designed to strengthen and mobilize the community of alumni who previously participated in U.S. government-supported exchange programs (referred to as USG alumni). At its core, the opportunity seeks proposals that build stronger connections among these alumni, expand their professional and civic networks, and support alumni-led initiatives that contribute to Armenia's development.
The main purpose of the funded program is twofold. First, it aims to encourage sustained networking and collaboration among USG alumni so that relationships built during exchange experiences translate into ongoing cooperation at home. Second, it aims to channel that alumni community toward concrete efforts that advance key public priorities, specifically democratic advancement, civic education, youth empowerment, and economic development in Armenia. In practical terms, competitive proposals would likely include structured activities that convene alumni, help them organize around shared goals, and support projects or events that generate visible benefits for communities, institutions, or young people across the country.
This opportunity will be awarded as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Embassy expects to be actively engaged with the recipient during implementation rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. Applicants should be prepared for collaboration with the U.S. Embassy Yerevan on program direction, coordination, and oversight, consistent with how cooperative agreements are commonly administered. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating the program may cut across multiple thematic areas rather than fitting neatly into one standard grant category, reflecting the broad civic, youth, democracy, and economic development objectives described in the notice.
The award ceiling for the competition is $250,000, with one award expected. That structure suggests the Embassy is looking for a single, well-integrated program with a clear national or community-wide reach rather than multiple smaller, disconnected projects. The posted original application deadline was April 30, 2023, and the opportunity was created on March 6, 2023. The CFDA (Assistance Listing) number associated with the opportunity is 19.900, which generally aligns with Department of State public diplomacy and related assistance activities.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement. In general, this phrasing often signals that the competition may be open to a range of organizational applicants rather than only a narrow category, but prospective applicants would need to confirm the exact eligible entity types and any country-of-registration or experience requirements in the complete funding notice. Overall, the grant is geared toward organizations capable of convening alumni networks, facilitating collaboration, and translating alumni energy into programs that strengthen civic life, empower youth, and support Armenia's democratic and economic progress.Apply for ALUMNI FY23 ARM1
