Greensky Gives, Inc.

Greensky Gives, Inc., a tax-exempt non-profit agricultural cooperative and service-disabled veteran-owned business based in Millbrook, Alabama, acts as a federal grant recipient delivering conservation outreach, technical assistance, and USDA program access to historically underserved farmers and ranchers. The organization holds Black American ownership and community development corporation designation, and competes exclusively as a prime grant recipient rather than as a federal contractor.

Greensky Gives operates a narrowly concentrated federal footprint anchored in the Department of Agriculture's National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Six of seven awards in the source data are NRCS Cooperative Agreements under the Soil and Water Conservation program (CFDA 10.902), with one award from USDA's National Institute of Food and Agriculture. The organization's work centers on conservation outreach, technical assistance, and sustainability education targeting socially disadvantaged, limited-resource, and veteran farmers and ranchers across rural regions — notably in South Carolina and multi-county footprints in the Southeast. Representative grant work includes a $400,000 Cooperative Agreement awarded March 2022 by NRCS to serve 75–100 historically underserved farmers across five South Carolina counties through March 2025; a December 2023 Cooperative Agreement (ultimate completion December 2025) focused on increasing awareness of and access to NRCS programs and building the next generation of diverse producers and conservationists; and a September 2024 Cooperative Agreement (ultimate completion August 2029) with the directive to increase the capacity of five community-based organizations to provide effective outreach services and improve producer participation in USDA programs.

Activity has remained sparse and irregular — one award in 2020, three awards in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2024 — with combined dollars obligated across all seven awards totaling $3.9 million. The most recent award (September 2024) carries a five-year performance period through August 2029, representing Greensky Gives' largest and longest-term engagement to date. No recompete cliff is present in the source data, but one award (September 2022 grant from the Institute of Youth, Family, and Community) completed in September 2025, suggesting modest churn within the rural agricultural education and outreach space. Greensky Gives operates without federal contract vehicles, federal contract prime awards, or federal contract sub awards; its entire footprint comprises grant work as a prime recipient, positioning it outside the competitive federal contracting base.
