Opportunity Information: Apply for P19AS00506

The Department of the Interior, National Park Service, issued a discretionary funding notice (Funding Opportunity Number P19AS00506) to support the development and production of an animated map video focused on the Southern Campaign of the American Revolution. The project is intended specifically for use in the Cowpens National Battlefield Visitor Center, where it would serve as interpretive media to help visitors visualize and understand key Revolutionary War battles and troop movements across the southern theater. The core goal is educational: to provide the public with a clearer, more coherent picture of the campaign's geographic scale, sequence of events, and overall influence on the outcome of the war.

This opportunity is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the National Park Service would expect to be actively involved in shaping or coordinating aspects of the work rather than simply issuing funds and receiving a final product. The funding activity category is listed as Education, aligning with the visitor-center interpretive purpose and the emphasis on communicating historical information in an accessible and engaging format.

In terms of funding details, the award ceiling is $500,000, and the announcement anticipates a single award. Importantly, the notice states it is not a request for applications; instead, it is a notice of intent to make a restricted award to the American Battlefield Trust. In practice, that means the agency is signaling that the project has been designated for a specific recipient rather than being opened up for competitive submissions from the broader community.

Eligibility information in the source data indicates that qualifying entities would include nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) and certain other organizations as described in the opportunity's additional eligibility text. However, because the notice is explicitly a restricted award and not an open solicitation, the practical takeaway is that it is not a currently competitive grant opportunity for new applicants. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.954, and the notice was created on August 13, 2019.
