Opportunity Information: Apply for F20AS00052
The grant opportunity titled "Monitoring and Evaluation of Monarch Butterfly and Pollinator Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number F20AS00052) is a discretionary grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Midwest Region. It is designed to support a focused monitoring and evaluation effort tied specifically to projects funded through the Monarch Butterfly and Pollinators Conservation Fund, which is administered by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF). The central aim is not to fund new habitat restoration work directly, but to strengthen how existing and future habitat projects are tracked, assessed, and measured for real-world conservation outcomes.
This funding is structured as a single-source award, meaning the agency intends to make one award without a competitive process. The planned recipient is the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, and the award is expected to run for two years with a total funding amount of up to $50,000 (also listed as the award ceiling). Only one award is anticipated under this opportunity, reflecting its targeted purpose and recipient. Although the eligibility category listed includes 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (other than institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear that this particular opportunity is intended as a non-competitive, single-source grant to NFWF.
Programmatically, the work supported by this grant focuses on monitoring and evaluation for habitat-related pollinator conservation projects, with a strong emphasis on the monarch butterfly and other pollinators. The monitoring efforts are intended to evaluate habitat projects that address major drivers of pollinator declines, specifically habitat fragmentation, habitat degradation, and the loss of breeding sites. In practical terms, this could include developing or applying consistent monitoring protocols, gathering field data, and evaluating whether funded habitat actions are improving ecological conditions in ways that benefit pollinator populations. The broader conservation goal is to improve the ecological health of pollinators by ensuring habitat investments can be assessed for effectiveness and improved over time based on evidence.
Administratively, the opportunity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.670. The notice was created on February 10, 2020, with an original closing date of February 18, 2020, indicating a short public posting window that is typical for single-source announcements where the awarding agency has already identified the intended grantee.Apply for F20AS00052
