Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS SLV AFCP LARGE FY19
The U.S. Embassy in San Salvador is running the FY 2019 Large Grants competition under the U.S. Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP), a program managed by the Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) through its Cultural Heritage Center. The opportunity supports substantial cultural preservation projects and is designed for serious, well-structured efforts that protect and conserve important cultural heritage. It is offered as a discretionary grant and is listed under CFDA number 19.025.
This is a two-stage competition. In the first stage, applicants submit a project abstract to the Embassy for initial screening. The deadline for submitting project abstracts is Monday, December 3, 2018 (the notice also repeats the date with a midnight timestamp). Only applicants whose abstracts meet all requirements and are approved by ECA's Cultural Heritage Center will be invited to move forward. In the second stage, invited applicants submit a full project application by February 15, 2019. The Embassy and ECA emphasize that this process is competitive and that an abstract submission is not the same as a full application invitation.
Funding levels for the Large Grants program are significant: awards must be at least USD 200,000 per project and can be as high as USD 800,000 per project. While the notice does not specify the exact number of awards expected, it makes clear that final implementation depends on the availability of FY 2019 funds and an approved congressional spend plan, meaning awards are subject to federal budget approval and related planning.
Eligible applicants are reputable and accountable non-commercial entities. Examples provided include non-governmental organizations, museums, ministries of culture, and similar institutions and organizations. This framing signals that the program is intended for established organizations with the capacity to manage large preservation projects responsibly, rather than individuals or commercial businesses.
Applications must be submitted in English without exception. The announcement also urges early coordination: U.S. embassies are encouraged to consult with the Cultural Heritage Center, public diplomacy desk officers, and regional bureau cultural coordinators to identify potential projects and ensure they align with U.S. foreign policy objectives. In practical terms, that means proposals are expected to clearly connect cultural preservation outcomes with broader public diplomacy and policy goals, and applicants should be prepared for scrutiny on both technical preservation merit and strategic alignment.
