Opportunity Information: Apply for 009 FY2021
The Bold Small Grants Mentoring Program is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity offered by the United States Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina through its Office of Public Affairs (OPA). It is designed to support the BOLD network (BiH Omladinski Lideri, Bosnia and Herzegovina Young Leaders), an OPA initiative focused on empowering young people ages 18 to 35 across Bosnia and Herzegovina through leadership development and practical opportunities to lead community-based change. Rather than directly funding youth projects itself, this grant funds an organization or entity to run a structured mentoring and support program for the youth project teams that will receive separate BOLD Small Grants awards.
This mentoring program is explicitly linked to, and meant to complement, a separate BOLD Small Grants Competition that will be announced independently. Through that competition, BOLD members can apply for project funding of up to $15,000 to carry out one-year projects centered on economic development and civic engagement. OPA plans to select the competition winners by the end of June 2021, but those winners will not receive their grant funds immediately. A key feature of this opportunity is that competition awardees will first be required to participate in a mentoring workshop led by the mentoring-program grantee, where they will refine and strengthen their project plans before funding is released.
The core purpose of the mentoring program is capacity building: helping the small-grants winners become effective project managers and responsible grant administrators over the entire life of their projects. The selected mentoring provider is expected to guide young grantees through the practical mechanics of receiving and managing a U.S. Government-funded award, including understanding administrative compliance expectations, setting up implementation plans, addressing challenges and risks as they arise, and producing timely and accurate reporting to OPA on project progress. In other words, the mentoring provider functions as an experienced coach and technical assistance partner so that youth-led projects have a higher chance of being delivered on time, within scope, and with clear, measurable results.
Because the program emphasizes stewardship of U.S. Government funds and proper grant management, the most competitive applicants are expected to bring strong, hands-on familiarity with U.S. Government grant processes and reporting standards, and to be able to translate that knowledge into practical guidance for emerging young leaders. The opportunity anticipates one award, with a total award ceiling of $10,000, and it is issued as a discretionary grant under CFDA 19.900 by the U.S. Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina. The funding opportunity number is 009 (FY2021). The notice was created on May 17, 2021, and the original closing date for applications was June 18, 2021. Eligible applicants are listed broadly as "Others" (with additional eligibility details referenced in the full notice), suggesting OPA is open to a range of capable implementers that can credibly deliver mentoring, training, and ongoing support to the BOLD small-grants recipients.Apply for 009 FY2021
