Is there a way to have a mentor without a subaward?

The subaward is the mechanism to provide the available $15k to the mentoring organization, under the EN Project Opportunity ‘Individual Capacity Building with Mentorship’. Under this Opportunity, the applicant can budget up to $400K in project costs and up to $15K in mentorship support costs. 

If the subaward is unnecessary (aka, there is no need for funds for the mentor), the applicant should just apply for the Individual Capacity Building opportunity. An organization could then still ‘mentor’ but it would no longer be a formal mentor under our program (with associated funding). It would just be one organization providing guidance to another (at their own expense).
