Opportunity Information: Apply for P20AS00055
The 9/11 Memorial Act Grant Program is a competitive federal grant opportunity administered by the Department of the Interior through the National Park Service. Its purpose is to help sustain the ongoing operation, security, and maintenance of on-site memorials connected directly to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The program is designed to support the day-to-day and protective needs that come with keeping these memorial sites open, safe, and properly maintained for visitors, survivors, families, and the public.
Funding is limited to what the program defines as "covered memorials." In this context, a covered memorial is an on-site memorial located in the United States at the actual locations of the attacks: the World Trade Center site and the Pentagon site. To qualify, the memorial must be established specifically to commemorate the events of September 11, 2001 and to honor the victims of those attacks. Beyond being located at the relevant sites, the memorial must also meet public access requirements tied to honoring service and sacrifice. Specifically, it must offer free admission to active and retired members of the U.S. military, registered first responders to the 9/11 attacks, and family members of victims. It also must provide the general public with free admission hours at least once per week.
The opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P20AS00055; CFDA 15.954) uses the standard grant instrument and falls under the funding activity category labeled "Other," as designated by the agency. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (excluding institutions of higher education), along with other eligible entities as clarified in the program's eligibility notes. The program anticipates making approximately 10 awards, with an award ceiling of up to $400,000 per grant, meaning individual projects can receive substantial support depending on need, competitiveness, and alignment with program priorities.
This specific posting was created on April 7, 2020, with an original application closing date of May 15, 2020. Overall, the grant is aimed at ensuring that the principal on-site 9/11 memorial locations can continue to function reliably and securely, remain well-maintained, and preserve meaningful access for those most directly connected to the events of September 11 as well as for the broader public.Apply for P20AS00055
