The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, is accepting applications for CDC-RFA-CK-26-0230, Advancing Global Capacity to Detect and Respond to Fungal Diseases. The current federal record closes September 30, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time and applications are submitted through Grants.gov.
The current federal version 4 record lists $15 million in total program funding, 10 expected awards, and no required cost share. CDC also states that an application is non-responsive if required documents are missing or if the funding request exceeds $300,000. Applicants should therefore use the current $300,000 responsiveness limit rather than older funding-range language from prior versions of the notice.
The cooperative agreement supports sustainable fungal-disease detection, diagnosis, surveillance and response capacity, including system and workforce development, laboratory and diagnostic capacity, and improved use of data for public-health action. Eligible organization types are broad, including governments, institutions of higher education, independent school districts, tribes and tribal organizations, nonprofits, for-profits including small businesses, public housing authorities and qualifying other entities. The prime applicant must demonstrate institutional infrastructure and expertise to lead, manage and monitor the technical work and remain accountable for programmatic and financial performance.
Applicants should confirm that they can independently lead the proposed work, maintain programmatic and financial accountability, and provide all required federal documents. Any application should use the current federal package and should not exceed the $300,000 responsiveness limit.
