Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) Program

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is seeking applications for Assistance Agreements from all U.S. and non-U.S. qualified organizations for funding to support a program entitled “Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) Program.” The overall goal of the program is to strengthen systems and structures of the Government of Ethiopia and civil society to improve the well-being of OVC and their families affected and infected by HIV/AIDS through a sustainable, comprehensive and coordinated manner. The authority for the RFA is found in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. USAID expects to award one Cooperative Agreement based on this RFA. Subject to the availability of funds, USAID intends to provide approximately $92,106,320 in total USAID funding to be allocated over the Five (5) year period. USAID reserves the right to fund any or none of the applications submitted. The associated RFA and any future amendments can be downloaded from http://www.grants.gov. Select “Find Grant Opportunities,” then click on “Browse by Agency,” and select the “U.S. Agency for International Development” and search for the RFA.
