Opportunity Information: Apply for AFLAG 22 02

The U.S. Consulate General in Lagos, through its Public Affairs Section (PAS), announced a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) seeking a registered Nigerian non-profit organization to organize and run a one-day alumni summit for 200 alumni of U.S. government-funded exchange programs. The summit is planned for October 2022 and is intended to bring together members of Nigeria's large exchange-alumni community (more than 9,000 people nationwide) to network, share ideas, and develop practical approaches to addressing challenges in their communities. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected organization would implement the project while coordinating closely with the U.S. Consulate team on key elements such as invitations and the summit agenda.

The opportunity is specifically geared toward Nigerian non-profits that can demonstrate strong event planning and execution capacity, because the core of the grant is comprehensive logistics and on-the-ground delivery. The implementing organization would be responsible for securing an appropriate venue capable of lodging the full group and hosting the summit meeting space. The participant flow is clearly defined: alumni are expected to arrive the afternoon before the summit, attend the full-day summit the next day, and depart the day after, which effectively requires planning for a three-day window with two hotel nights.

The scope of work includes end-to-end conference operations. Applicants must plan and provide meeting-room setup, technical equipment, and ongoing technical support during the summit. They must also arrange catering for the conference day, including at minimum a coffee break, lunch, and dinner. Lodging is a major budget and coordination element: the organization must book two nights of hotel accommodation in double rooms (including breakfast) for all 200 alumni, either at the summit venue or nearby. In addition, the organization must manage and disburse a per diem of $50 per person to attendees, which requires clear procedures for disbursement, tracking, and accountability.

Beyond the event-day mechanics, the grant expects strong communications and vendor management. The selected organization must design and produce promotional materials such as banners, backdrops, flyers, and invitations, and must source, negotiate, and manage all needed vendors and suppliers. Coordination with the U.S. Consulate is built into the project: the organization will work with consulate staff to identify and invite relevant attendees and participants and to finalize the summit schedule. Proposals are expected to be detailed and operationally realistic, laying out timelines, proposed venues, supplier and vendor plans, staffing arrangements, and a complete budget that covers all listed requirements.

Applicants are also expected to plan for participant safety and health requirements. The NOFO explicitly calls for inclusion of first-aid arrangements, Covid-19 protocols, and other administrative charges as part of the planning and budget. Funding is subject to the availability and approval of U.S. Government fiscal year 2022 funds, reinforcing that award decisions and final implementation depend on federal funding release.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is issued by the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Nigeria. The funding opportunity number is AFLAG 22 02, posted on February 4, 2022, with an original application deadline of March 4, 2022. The program anticipates one award, with an award ceiling of $50,000, under CFDA 19.040, and it is categorized under "Other" for both the opportunity and activity type, reflecting that it is a specialized event-delivery project rather than a standard program area grant.
