Eligible applicants include private voluntary organizations, cooperatives, and international organizations with demonstrated capabilities to execute food assistance projects. Awards are typically 3–5 years in duration and prioritize projects in designated food-insecure countries. The program emphasizes 100 percent U.S.-origin commodities, strict accountability measures to prevent fraud and diversion, and goals of reducing long-term foreign aid dependency through regular monitoring and project evaluation for graduation. Specific eligible countries include Rwanda, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, and Kenya, each with designated identification numbers for application reference.
