Campesinos Unidos, Inc.

Campesinos Unidos, Inc., a minority-owned, woman-owned, Hispanic American-owned nonprofit community development corporation based in Brawley, California, operates as a grant sub-recipient delivering low-income energy assistance and weatherization services to eligible households across California. The vendor does not hold federal contracts or contract IDVs as a prime; its footprint consists entirely of sub-awards under federal grant programs routed through the California Department of Community Services and Development.

Campesinos Unidos' award portfolio reflects concentrated, recurring engagement with a single grantor channel. The top two customers in the award-count ranking — the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and the Department of Energy — account for 100% of recent awards. However, the source's customer list appears to contain a duplicate entry that distorts the display; the substantive record shows that all six sub-awards identified since 2024 flow through the California Department of Community Services and Development as the prime grantee, making CSD the vendor's sole active customer agency. The vendor has delivered work under three federal grant programs: the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) under Title 42 USC § 8621 et seq., the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) under Title 42 USC § 6861 et seq., and the Supplemental Low-Income Household Energy Assistance Program (SLIHEAP) combined with the Energy Crisis Intervention Program (ECIP). Sub-award dates span July 2024 through May 2026, with awards in 2024 (2), 2025 (2), and 2026 (2), signaling recurring annual or biannual sub-recipient engagement.

Service delivery is geographically bounded to Campesinos Unidos' designated service area in the Imperial Valley region; the vendor administers energy assistance and weatherization to low-income households according to CSD-approved service delivery plans, prioritizing households with lowest incomes and highest energy costs. Combined dollars obligated across all eight awards since 1988 total $57.6 million, though the temporal distribution in the source data is sparse (a single 1988 award, a single 2009 award, then concentrated 2024–2026 activity), suggesting either incomplete historical coverage or recent activation of sustained sub-recipient status. The vendor's nonprofit structure and community development designation position it as a local service provider embedded in California's state-administered LIHEAP and weatherization infrastructure rather than as a federal contractor competing for task orders or IDV vehicles.
