Historically, ACF has found that the imposition of a matching
requirement on awards under these programs results in an increased
level of community support and, often, a higher profile in the
community. This can contribute to the success and sustainability of the
project. The Fiscal Year 2008 funding opportunity announcements for
each listed program will advise applicants on the percentage of funds
that must be contributed through non-Federal resources, the composition
of the match, and the merit of the match as a criterion in the
competitive review. The amount and acceptable types of non-Federal
resources allowed is not negotiable. However, matching may be provided
as direct or indirect costs. The presence and composition of matching
funds may be used as a criterion in evaluating the merits of an
application during competitive review. Specific information related to
the matching requirement and competitive review will be provided in the
specific funding opportunity announcement. Unmatched Federal funds will
be disallowed. Costs borne by matching contributions are subject to the
rules governing allowability found under 45 CFR 74.23 and 45 CFR 92.24.
