Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00084

The Youth Ambassadors Anza Trail notice (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00084) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement under the U.S. Department of the Interior. It falls under CFDA 15.935 and is categorized as an "Other" funding activity (with additional clarification referenced in the full opportunity text). The key point is that this posting is not a competitive solicitation and not a request for applications; instead, it serves as a public notice that NPS intends to make a specific financial assistance award.

NPS indicates it plans to issue Cooperative Agreement P20AC00756 to a named partner, Ironwood Tree Experience, for a project titled "Youth Ambassadors Anza Trail." Because the award is being announced as an intent to fund a particular organization for defined project activities, there is no application window and no closing date in the usual sense. The notice lists an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that this is a single, predetermined assistance action rather than an open call.

The funding parameters provided include an award ceiling of $57,577, which effectively signals the maximum anticipated federal amount associated with this cooperative agreement. Although the eligibility field lists nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), in practice this notice is informational rather than invitational, meaning other eligible nonprofits are not being asked to apply through this announcement.

In short, this is a transparency posting: NPS is informing the public that it intends to support the "Youth Ambassadors Anza Trail" project through a cooperative agreement with Ironwood Tree Experience, up to $57,577, and that there will be one award made under this action rather than a competitive grant round.
