Boys And Girls Club Of The Cedar Valley

Boys And Girls Club Of The Cedar Valley, doing business as Boys & Girls Clubs Of Waterloo, operates as a tax-exempt nonprofit organization that serves as a sub-recipient on federal grants rather than a prime contractor or independent grantee. The organization does not hold prime contract vehicles, and all three awards in the recent federal footprint are grant sub-awards with a combined obligated value of $1.1 million.

The organization's federal activity focuses on youth and community programming through two program streams. Two awards under the 21st Century Community Learning Centers Program (CFDA 84.287) flow from the Department of Education's Iowa office, supporting after-school learning centers with sub-grant awards dated July 2, 2024 and July 22, 2025. A third sub-award dated October 22, 2025 funds work to assist nonprofits in preventing, protecting against, preparing for, and responding to terrorist or other extremist attacks, indicating a secondary focus on community security and resilience programming. The organization's customer base is singular — all three awards come through the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education — accounting for two of the three tracked awards (67% of the footprint).

Activity is nascent in the federal footprint captured in the source data, with a baseline of one award in 2024 and two in 2025. The organization operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal grant programs, with no prime contractor relationships, no IDV participation, and no independent federal contract vehicles. The sub-recipient posture and nonprofit structure position the organization as a community-based implementing partner for youth and emergency-preparedness programming rather than as a federal IT, engineering, or professional-services vendor.
