Gold Medal Karate Inc.

Gold Medal Karate Inc., doing business as Zhang SAH, is a Philadelphia-based non-profit organization that operates as a sub-recipient on federal education grants, delivering academic enrichment and community learning services to high-poverty schools through the 21st Century Community Learning Centers program. The organization has no federal contract prime or subcontractor activity; all eight recent awards are grant sub-awards under the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education.

Gold Medal Karate Inc. received eight sub-award notices from the Pennsylvania Department of Education between January 30 and April 17, 2026, totaling $2 million in obligated federal funding. All awards flow through the 21st CCLC program, which funds community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities to students attending high-poverty and low-performing schools. The organization's entire federal footprint consists of these grants; it has served a single customer agency (Department of Education) across all recent activity. The award clustering in early 2026 (six awards in January and February, two additional in April) suggests new or expanded sub-award relationships with the Pennsylvania Department of Education during the current fiscal period, with no prior grants recorded in the source data before January 30, 2026.

The organization operates outside traditional federal contracting vehicles, parent IDIQs, and set-aside categories. As a tax-exempt non-profit entity structured as a business organization, Gold Medal Karate Inc. competes for federal grant opportunities available to non-profit K–12 education providers rather than commercial federal contract vehicles. The concrete service offering — after-school academic enrichment and community learning center operations — aligns with the 21st CCLC program's statutory mission but is not yet developed in the source material beyond the program description.
