Cedar Creek Volunteer Fire Department

Cedar Creek Volunteer Fire Department is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization located in Aberdeen, Mississippi, registered with SAM.gov since November 2013. The organization serves as a volunteer fire department providing emergency response and firefighting services to the Cedar Creek community. As a prime recipient of federal grant awards, Cedar Creek Volunteer Fire Department has demonstrated consistent engagement with federal funding mechanisms to support its operational and capital needs.

Cedar Creek Volunteer Fire Department has received three consecutive Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG) from FEMA HQ Financial Assistance Awards, demonstrating sustained federal support for its emergency services mission. The most recent grant was awarded on September 27, 2025, with a completion date of September 26, 2027, followed by a prior award dated July 22, 2024 (completion July 21, 2026), and an earlier award from March 16, 2023 (completion March 15, 2025). All three awards were structured as Project Grants, which typically support firefighting equipment purchases, facility improvements, training programs, and other capacity-building initiatives essential to volunteer fire department operations. These recurring AFG awards indicate Cedar Creek Volunteer Fire Department's successful track record in securing federal resources and suggest the organization provides critical emergency response and fire protection services to its jurisdiction. The organization has not identified any federal contract prime awardees or federal grant subcontractors in its current SAM.gov registration, indicating that it operates as a direct beneficiary of these federal grants rather than as a subrecipient or subcontractor to larger entities.
