About the company
Literacy Mid South Inc., a woman-owned nonprofit organization based in Memphis, Tennessee, operates as a federal grant sub-recipient delivering literacy interventions and AmeriCorps program support through the Corporation for National and Community Service. The organization does not hold prime federal contracts or contract vehicles; all four of its recent federal awards are sub-grants flowing from Volunteer Tennessee under AmeriCorps programming.
Literacy Mid South's capability portfolio centers on direct literacy services to elementary students in out-of-school time programs and foundational English Language Learning tutoring to adults. The organization deploys AmeriCorps members to provide these interventions while simultaneously building organizational capacity at partner community sites in Memphis. Representative recent sub-grant awards include a $307,500 matched AmeriCorps sub-grant (Jul 17, 2025) under which Literacy Mid South deployed 61 AmeriCorps members to support literacy interventions and lead learner-centered workshops and ELL field trips; an $188,425 matched AmeriCorps sub-grant (Aug 1, 2024) supporting 39 members focused on whole-family literacy in designated "Literacy Zones" across Memphis with emphasis on K-3 reading success and COVID-19 recovery; and a $198,227 matched AmeriCorps sub-grant (Aug 12, 2026) deploying 18 members to elementary out-of-school time programs and adult ELL tutoring with organizational capacity-building components.
All four tracked awards flow through a single funding agency: the Corporation for National and Community Service Office of Grants Management via Volunteer Tennessee as the prime grantee. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $575 thousand. Activity is sparse and episodic — one award each in 2016, 2024, 2025, and 2026 — indicating no strong growth trajectory or sustained federal funding pipeline. As a sub-recipient on AmeriCorps grants rather than a prime contractor or prime grantee, Literacy Mid South lacks the direct federal customer relationships and independent vehicle access that would enable broader federal market positioning.
