USAID’s Office of Food for Peace (FFP) is offering this grant to update its Title II emergency food assistance programs. This grant is for fundamentally altering the mechanism for soliciting, reviewing, and funding applications for emergency food aid. The core purpose is to implement a new system utilizing a single Annual Program Statement (APS), under which eligible organizations will be required to submit applications and compete against clearly defined evaluation criteria to secure emergency food assistance awards. This strategic change aims to enhance the efficiency, transparency, and competitiveness of how USAID allocates crucial humanitarian aid.
