Additional Information on Eligibility: Entities eligible to apply for this grant competition are: Public Organizations (with the exception of State and local food stamp agencies* see reason below)and Private, non-profit organizations. Examples of eligible entities include, but are not limited to: Faith-based organizations; Community groups;Food banks;Public Health Clinics; and School districts Recipients of FNS outreach grants under the "Food Stamp Program Research Grants to Improve Access Through the Use of New Technology and Partnerships" awarded in fiscal years 2001 and 2002 may not apply. FNS is especially interested in obtaining new and innovative approaches from new partners in its initiative to reach non-participating people. For this reason, FNS has excluded entities that received these Food Stamp grants previously. *State and local food stamp agencies are ineligible to apply because funding for outreach activities performed by State and local food stamp agencies are governed by the Food Stamp Act, which authorizes FNS to pay only 50 percent of a State's allowable costs for authorized administrative expenses, including optional food stamp outreach activities. Thus, by law, FNS cannot pay States or local food stamp agencies 100 percent of the costs for food stamp outreach, as would be the case if such agencies were to receive these grants. Please review the Request for Application carefully to determine all requirements.
