A Federal Partnership Program
The
Challenge Cost Share Program (CCSP) was established as a means for the
National Park Service to support the work of groups that share and preserve natural,
recreational, and cultural resources. The Challenge Cost Share Program maximizes
the impact of federal funds by giving a maximum of $22,000 in Federal share
and requiring a 50-50 match in nonfederal cash or in-kind services.
Partners
jointly execute projects that promote their own missions and relate to the NPS
mission. Partners have included: - Local
state, municipal, and county agencies
- American Indian organizations
- Community volunteer or "friends"
groups
- Historic property owners
- University and college researchers
- Museums
- Nonprofit
foundations
Projects are selected competitively.
