Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY17 06
The Democracy Commission Small Grants Program (Funding Opportunity Number PAS CHISINAU FY17 06) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Mission to Moldova to support projects that align with democracy-related priorities in Moldova. While the public-facing description provided here is brief and points applicants to attached documents for the full program details, the basic structure of the opportunity is clear: it is a small-grants competition intended to fund targeted, time-bound activities that advance democratic development, civic participation, transparency, rights, and related community or civil society objectives as defined by the mission and the Democracy Commission framework.
This opportunity uses a grant as the funding instrument, meaning selected applicants would receive financial assistance to carry out an approved project rather than a procurement-style contract for goods or services. The award ceiling is USD 20,000, signaling that the program is designed for smaller-scale initiatives that can demonstrate practical impact with modest budgets. The listing indicates an expected awards field, but no specific number is provided in the source data shared, so the number of awards likely depended on available funding and the quality of proposals received during the competition cycle.
Eligibility, as stated in the provided data, is limited to nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, excluding institutions of higher education. In practice, this type of eligibility language often appears in opportunities aimed at local or non-U.S. civil society actors, though the attached guidance (not included here) would normally clarify whether applicants must be Moldova-based, whether international organizations may apply, and whether informal groups, media outlets, or other entity types are eligible or require a fiscal sponsor. The program is categorized under CFDA 19.900, which generally corresponds to U.S. Department of State public diplomacy and related assistance mechanisms.
Key administrative dates included in the source data show that the opportunity was created on January 17, 2017, and the original application deadline was April 28, 2017. That timeline suggests a competitive window of a little over three months, which is typical for small grants programs that expect concise proposals, clear objectives, and straightforward budgets.
Because the short description explicitly says, "Please find the attached documents for all other details," critical elements such as priority themes, allowable and unallowable costs, project duration, cost-sharing expectations, reporting requirements, application format, evaluation criteria, and submission instructions are not available in the text you provided. In similar Democracy Commission small grants programs, applicants are usually expected to describe a concrete problem, propose measurable activities and outcomes, identify target beneficiaries, outline an implementation plan and timeline, and present a reasonable, itemized budget that stays within the maximum award amount. The attached documents would also typically specify how proposals are scored (for example, relevance to mission priorities, feasibility, organizational capacity, cost-effectiveness, sustainability, and monitoring and evaluation approach).
Overall, this is a small, competitive grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Mission to Moldova, with funding up to $20,000 per award, aimed at supporting democracy-focused initiatives through nonprofit applicants meeting the stated eligibility category, with applications due by late April 2017 and full requirements contained in the referenced attachments.Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY17 06
