About the company
Joyful Readers, Inc., a Philadelphia-based nonprofit organization, operates as a federal grant sub-recipient under the Corporation for National and Community Service, receiving AmeriCorps State grant awards passed through the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry. The vendor holds no federal contracts or prime grant positions; all three awards in the source data are grant sub-awards.
Joyful Readers has received three AmeriCorps State grant sub-awards across 2022, 2023, and 2026, each competitively awarded by PennSERVE (the Pennsylvania service corps grantee) under the annual Pennsylvania AmeriCorps State Grants program. The August 2022 award and September 2023 award both carried identical descriptions related to prosecution of unemployment compensation fraud claims and employer violations, though the source material identifies these as AmeriCorps State grants supporting community service activities through AmeriCorps members recruited and deployed by eligible organizations. The most recent award, dated January 2026, carried a $0 budget allocation. Combined obligated dollars across all three awards total $2.5 million. The vendor's sole federal customer is the Corporation for National and Community Service Office of Grants Management, representing 100% of awards in the source data.
Activity traces a thin footprint: one award per year in 2022 and 2023, followed by a 2026 sub-award. The vendor operates exclusively in the grant sub-recipient role with no contracting vehicle presence, no prime contract or grant experience, and no teaming relationships with defense or civilian federal prime contractors in the source material.
