Palestinian Community Assistance Program: USAID/West Bank and Gaza - Palestinian Community Assistance ProgramPre-Solicitation Notice The United States Government (USG), through USAID, has been one of the leading donors of humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza since the onset of military operations in December 2008. USAID assistance has focused on the delivery of food and non-food items (including clothing, household items, and hygiene kits), school and classroom supplies for private schools, and emergency supplies (blankets, plastic sheeting, and medical supplies). This assistance was a critical lifeline for the people of Gaza in the immediate aftermath of Operation Cast Lead and throughout the ensuing months. Humanitarian assistance and disaster response remain key pillars of USG support for Gaza. Additionally, USAID planning for future assistance has increasingly focused on recovery programs that both meet basic human needs and address the recovery of livelihoods for Gazan families. USAID/West Bank and Gaza will be releasing an RFA that intends to award one Cooperative Agreement to an organization that would manage and oversee humanitarian and recovery sub-grants over a multi-year period. The RFA will fund complex programming in Gaza which promotes long-term food security, safe and secure housing options, improved infrastructure, household-level economic recovery, and other economic recovery opportunities. These efforts are in line with the priorities established in the Palestinian Authority's Early Recovery and Reconstruction Plan for Gaza. Projects funded under this RFA may include activities in the health, education, agriculture, infrastructure, or economic sectors. Examples of potential activities may include constructing agricultural infrastructure, rehabilitating irrigation systems, providing emergency food and non-food items, constructing or rehabilitating private schools/health clinics, building women's centers, weatherizing private homes, or providing educational programming for school age children. Such activities will provide a tangible benefit to the people of Gaza in 2010 and beyond.
