Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS PAS SLO 2018 003

The FY 2018 Notice of Funding Opportunity: NGO Small Grants Program (Funding Opportunity Number: DOS PAS SLO 2018 003) is a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Mission to Slovenia (U.S. Embassy Ljubljana). It is designed to support Slovenian civil society organizations with small-scale, practical projects that are clearly planned, well managed, and capable of strengthening the broader civil society sector while addressing societal needs that align with U.S. priority areas.

The program is open to nonprofit applicants that do not have U.S. IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). In practice, this points to local, non-U.S. nonprofit civil society organizations operating in Slovenia as the primary target applicants. Funding decisions are made through a competitive process, and proposals are evaluated internally by an embassy committee rather than being awarded automatically or on a first-come basis. The Embassy also signals a preference for first-time or new grantees, indicating that organizations that have not previously received these funds may have an advantage over repeat applicants.

Project topics are intentionally broad, giving applicants flexibility as long as the proposal fits within the Embassy's priority themes. Eligible areas include democracy and human rights, security and foreign policy issues, economic development and civic development, and initiatives that contribute to regional stability in Southeastern Europe. The opportunity emphasizes not only the subject matter, but also the quality of project design and implementation, suggesting that strong planning, realistic activities, and credible management capacity are important factors in review.

Award sizes are generally small and meant to complement other resources rather than fully fund large programs. Typical awards fall between $3,000 and $5,000, with an award ceiling of $10,000 for exceptional proposals. The notice anticipates a relatively high number of awards (about 40), which suggests the Embassy is aiming to support a wide range of smaller efforts across different organizations and communities instead of concentrating funds in a few large grants. The program is categorized under CFDA 19.040 and uses a standard grant funding instrument.

The NOFO was posted on June 7, 2018, and the proposal submission deadline was August 6, 2018. Applicants interested in this opportunity would need to submit by that date and ensure their proposals clearly connect to one or more of the stated priority areas, demonstrate feasible implementation, and present a compelling case for how the project will strengthen civil society or address a relevant societal concern in Slovenia or the broader region.
