National Center for Missing & Exploited Children In general, OJP expects that a prospective applicant that is sent an OJP Invitation Letter will be eligible to receive funding as described in the invitation. (Under certain circumstances, however, OJP ultimately may determine that an invited applicant is not, in fact, legally eligible to receive an award.) Applicants that are nonprofit organizations must be organizations described in 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) and exempt from taxation under 26 U.S.C. 501(a). Nonprofit organizations that hold money in offshore accounts for the purposes of avoiding paying the tax described in 26 U.S.C. 511(a) are not eligible to apply. All recipients and subrecipients (including any for-profit organization) must forgo any profit or management fee.

Is this a realistic fit?

• Past Missing Children's Assistance awards averaged $1.8 million; this notice allows up to $6.0 million per award.
• Most of the program's money (51% over five years) went to nonprofits.
• No cost sharing or match is required.
