About The Leaguers, Inc.
The Leaguers, Inc., doing business as Leaguers, is a tax-exempt non-profit organization based in Newark, New Jersey, that acts as a prime recipient of federal Head Start grants and a sub-recipient of food assistance funding from state agencies managing federal programs. The vendor does not hold federal contracts and does not compete for procurement; its federal footprint consists entirely of grants from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and sub-awards routed through the New Jersey Department of Agriculture under food-assistance programs.
Leaguers delivers comprehensive early childhood education and family support services, including Head Start and Early Head Start programming designed to promote school readiness among low-income children and families in the Newark area. Services span infants, toddlers, preschool-aged children, and pregnant women, addressing cognitive, physical, behavioral, and socio-emotional development through educational instruction, health and nutritional support, and family engagement. The vendor has held over $182 million in Head Start awards since 2019. Recent prime grant activity includes a $31.05 million Project Grant (CFDA 93.600) from the Office of Head Start effective February 1, 2026, through January 31, 2031, and a prior $15.129 million Head Start award running through January 31, 2027. An Early Head Start Project Grant awarded August 1, 2024, extends through July 31, 2029. All prime awards require the recipient to maintain a 20 percent non-federal match and meet federal performance standards tied to school readiness outcomes, health metrics, and family well-being.
The vendor's sub-award activity consists entirely of food-assistance funding routed through the New Jersey Department of Agriculture under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Between October 2023 and October 2024, Leaguers received multiple sub-awards for CARES Food and CARES Cash-in-Lieu programs, supporting meal provision and nutrition assistance for eligible children. Customer concentration is narrow: the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families accounts for 13 of 34 total awards, and the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 21 awards (all sub-awards flowing through New Jersey state administration). Award frequency peaked in 2023 with sixteen awards, then declined to six in 2024, with one award dated in 2026. The combined dollars obligated across all awards reaches $566.9 million.
