| 94-21386 | Airport Arrival Service in New York City | Uncategorized Document | The Advising and Student Services Branch of the United States Information Agency's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition for an assistance award program. Public and/or private non-profit applicants meeting the provisions described in IRS regulation 501(c)(3) may apply to develop an airport reception and assistance service based in New York City. The service would assist U.S. Government-sponsored (including Fulbright scholars and students, Humphrey Fellows, etc.) and non-sponsored international students, scholars, exchange visitors, and participants in USIA's International Visitor Program, arriving in New York City. The applicant would provide a multilingual, trained staff to assist international visitors with complex logistics and unexpected problems which occur when arriving in a foreign country. USIA anticipates awarding up to $60,000 to an applicant to provide these services. Up to $29,000 will be devoted to assisting with up to 250 USIA International Visitor meets (i.e., flights, including groups arriving on a single flight) from January 1-December 31, 1995. Up to $31,000 will be devoted to assisting the maximum number of U.S. Government-sponsored and non-sponsored international students, scholars, and exchange visitors from June 15 to September 30, 1995. Overall grant making authority for this program is contained in the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961, as amended, Public Law 87-256, also known as the Fulbright-Hays Act. The purpose of the Act is ``to enable the Government of the United States to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries * * *; to strengthen the ties which unite us with other nations by demonstrating the educational and cultural interests, developments, and achievements of the people of the United States and other nations * * * and thus to assist in the development of friendly, sympathetic and peaceful relations between the United States and the other countries of the world.'' Programs and projects must conform with Agency requirements and guidelines outlined in the Application Package. USIA projects and programs are subject to the availability of funds. | 1994-09-01 | 1994 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/09/01/94-21386/airport-arrival-service-in-new-york-city | United States Information Agency | 510 | The Advising and Student Services Branch of the United States Information Agency's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition for an assistance award program.
