### PRM’s General NGO Guidelines PRM’s General NGO Guidelines provide an overview of PRM’s NGO funding priorities and sectors and will answer many questions on the application process. All current and prospective applicants for PRM funding should read the Guidelines in their entirety when they are updated each fiscal year and if modifications are required during the course of the fiscal year.
The FY 2018 version of PRM’s General NGO Guidelines is now posted. The Guidelines contain a “What’s New” section which summarizes the major updates since the previous version of the Guidelines was posted. Prospective applicants should review the section entitled “Application Process” which provides resources and tips for first-time applicants.
Existing PRM partners are advised to re-read this section as a refresher and to ensure they are aware of changes to automated platforms used in the federal grant process.

Grants. gov website has an Applicants page that includes useful information such as Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for Grants. gov applicants, a training video on the registration process, and troubleshooting tips.
Some top issues that organizations have faced in the past that have caused them to miss application deadlines are: * **File Names: When submitting documents on Grants. gov, please pay close attention to the file naming conventions. If these guidelines are not followed, your application may be rejected**: File attachment names longer than approximately 50 characters are problematic.
Limit file attachment names. Do not use any special characters (example: &,? ,*,%,/,#,’,) or spacing followed by a dash in the file (example: Application – 1).
For word separation, use underscore (example: Attached_File. pdf) in naming the attachments. * **Wrong version of Adobe Reader:** Grants.
gov has created a test package to check whether applicants are using the compatible version of Adobe software to view their application package. **We recommend that applicants do not wait until the last minute to test the compatibility of their Adobe Reader. ** * **Expired SAM registration:** All applicants must be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM).

These are not mandatory but are recommended to ensure that applicants include all relevant information in their proposal submissions. To receive copies of PRM’s recommended proposal narrative, budget, and reporting templates, email PRM’s NGO Coordinator with the phrase “PRM NGO Templates” in the subject line of the email, to generate an automated reply.
### Additional Policy Guidance **Gender**: PRM requires applicant to include a gender analysis in all proposals for PRM assistance and to estimate the level of funding attributable to GBV response in relevant applications. Please see PRM’sGender and Gender-based Violence (GBV) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and our General NGO Guidelines for more information on our new gender requirements.
**Codes of Conduct**: Applicants for PRM funding are also required to submit an organization-specific Code of Conduct as an attachment to their proposal. The Codes of Conduct must be consistent with the Inter-Agency Standing Committee’s (IASC) six core principles to protect beneficiaries of humanitarian assistance from sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA). Please refer to PRM’s General NGO Guidelines for details.
**Organizational Framework on Accountability to Affected Populations**: In FY 2017, PRM established new requirements for applications to submit an organization framework on Accountability to Affected Populations as an attachment to their proposal. We encourage partners to align their AAP frameworks with the IASC’s Five Commitments to Accountability to Affected Populations, available here.
Additional resources on accountability to affected populations can be found at the Core Humanitarian Standard Alliance Frequently Asked Questions on AAP resource page.

Past winners and funding trends for this program
On June 29, 2026, EPA announced it will waive the $25,000 WIFIA application fee and the credit processing fee — averaging roughly $156,000 per loan — for communities of 25,000 or fewer residents in fiscal years 2026 and 2027. Combined, that removes nearly $200,000 in upfront cost from the single most affordable federal water-infrastructure financing program, which carries roughly $11 billion in available capacity and can cover up to 80% of eligible project costs at Treasury-rate pricing. For small towns, rural utilities, and the nonprofits and districts that serve them, this is a rare instance of the federal government lowering the barrier to a program that has historically been out of reach for exactly the communities that need it most. Here is what changed, who qualifies, and how to move on a letter of interest before the window closes.
Read articleFor FY2026 and FY2027, EPA is waiving the $25,000 WIFIA application fee and the ~$156,000 credit-processing fee for water systems serving 25,000 or fewer people — a near-$200,000 discount on access to an $11 billion pool of low-cost federal financing. The waiver removes the single barrier that kept small and rural utilities out of WIFIA for a decade. Here is how WIFIA actually works, who qualifies, why the letter of interest is the real gate, and how a town of 8,000 should think about a program built for billion-dollar projects.

Applications are due September 1, 2026. The catch that will decide who wins: this is not a police grant, a prosecutor grant, or a behavioral-health grant. It is a single citywide proposal that has to braid all of them together. Here is who is eligible, what the money actually funds, and how a mayor's office should build a proposal that survives DOJ review.
