About this file

The Budget Narrative is a detailed Excel spreadsheet template for the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi's American Spaces Programs grant opportunity, designed to capture comprehensive budget information across multiple expense categories. The template provides structured sections for budgeting personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual services, other direct charges, and indirect costs, with columns for unit cost, quantity, amount requested, and cost-shared expenses. Currently, all budget line items are set to $0, indicating this is a preparatory document for grant applicants to complete.

The budget narrative corresponds to a U.S. Department of State Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for American Spaces programs commemorating America250 in Vietnam, specifically targeting programming across American Spaces in Hanoi, Thai Nguyen, Ho Chi Minh City, An Giang, and Can Tho. The grant opportunity, under the ECA – American Spaces Federal Grant Program (CFDA 19.441), seeks to promote U.S. cultural exchange and understanding through interactive programming, with a focus on showcasing American excellence during the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in 2026. Grantees will be responsible for implementing activities in at least two American Spaces, with funding likely ranging between $5,000 and $100,000.
