Opportunity Information: Apply for SVM700 20 PAS 008
The 2020 Alumni Small Grants Competition is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity run by the U.S. Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City (U.S. Mission to Vietnam). It is designed specifically for Vietnamese alumni who previously participated in U.S. Government-funded exchange programs. The central purpose is to help alumni collaborate on practical projects that support a shared vision for Vietnam's future while also strengthening the U.S.-Vietnam relationship by tackling issues and concerns that matter to both sides.
Applicants must be Vietnamese alumni of USG exchange programs, and they may apply either as individuals or through a nonprofit organization where they are working, as long as the project is clearly alumni-driven. The funding instrument is a grant, and the program is described as an earmark opportunity under CFDA 19.040. While the activity category is listed as "Other," the emphasis in the description is on initiatives that bring alumni together to address shared concerns and create constructive community impact, rather than purely academic or internal organizational work.
Funding is relatively small and competitive: budgets cannot exceed USD 10,000 per project (the award ceiling). The program anticipated making about two awards, which suggests a selective process where proposals need to be focused, feasible, and clearly aligned with the program's goals. Another key constraint is geographic eligibility for project activities: funded work must take place only in provinces south of, and including, Thua Thien Hue. Projects occurring outside this region would not qualify.
Applications must be submitted in English and must include all required forms, which implies that incomplete submissions risk being deemed nonresponsive. The deadline was firm: 11:59 p.m. on April 1, 2020 (original closing date). The notice emphasizes that late proposals would not be considered under any circumstances, so on-time submission and compliance with formatting and documentation requirements were critical. The opportunity was created on October 30, 2019, and is identified by Funding Opportunity Number SVM700 20 PAS 008 under the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Vietnam.Apply for SVM700 20 PAS 008
