Corporation for National and Community Service federal obligations
The Corporation for National and Community Service shows $3,360,420,794.38 in USAspending.gov obligations through fiscal year 2026. Those dollars sit on 2,244 awards tagged to awarding-agency CGAC 485. The profile is a compact independent-agency book: a few thousand rows and a mean in the low millions. The hub reports the award file; it does not count volunteers or score service hours. The source row stores 3360420794.38, whose billion-scale compact is 3.4.
Key figures
- CNCS (CGAC 485) shows $3,360,420,794.38 in USAspending obligations through FY 2026.
- Award volume is 2,244 records.
- The total is an award-file obligation sum, not a member or hour census.
- AmeriCorps versus Senior Corps splits are not in this packet.
$3.36 billion on 2,244 national-service awards
The precise total is $3,360,420,794.38. Divided by 2,244 awards, the implied mean is about $1.50 million per award. State commissions, national nonprofits, and other grantees can occupy those rows; this packet does not split the 2,244 count by AmeriCorps or Senior Corps brands, so program shares are not stated here.
Fiscal year 2026 is the latest year. Multi-year grants can remain open, so $3,360,420,794.38 is not a single service year’s stipend cash. USAspending.gov is the source.
That mix is the research takeaway from the two packet facts together. 2,244 awards at a mean near $1.50 million fit commission and nonprofit grants rather than a member-level stipend ledger. A later extract can change both the dollar total and the award count as multi-year grants remain open inside FY 2026.
CGAC 485 as the awarding-agency identifier
SpendingVault keys CNCS to /agencies/485/. CGAC 485 is the USAspending awarding-agency code used in this extract. The $3,360,420,794.38 total and 2,244 award count roll up rows carrying that identifier. The award count is not a count of members, sites, or hours served.
Obligations versus member-stipend ledgers
Living allowances and education awards follow program rules that are not stored as this USAspending rollup. This hub cites $3,360,420,794.38 in obligations through FY 2026 on 2,244 awards. Member headcounts and hour totals are not in the packet. Outlays are omitted.
Researchers sometimes treat an agency obligation total as cash already paid. For Corporation for National and Community Service, that reading is wrong. Volunteer-hour totals, member headcounts, or AmeriCorps versus Senior Corps brand splits belong in other publications. The USAspending figure on this hub remains an obligation sum through FY 2026. Multi-year grants remain open inside FY 2026.
State geography for CGAC 485
Place-of-performance for commission and nonprofit grants often follows the grantee’s state. A national intermediary can still concentrate a slice of $3,360,420,794.38 in one jurisdiction. The state table is a coding view of the 2,244 awards through FY 2026, not a ranking of civic engagement.
Place-of-performance is a coding field, not a complete economic-impact model. On this agency, commission and nonprofit grantee states fill many cells; a national intermediary can concentrate a slice in one jurisdiction. Read the state table after the agency hub, not instead of it. Read CGAC 485 as an awarding-agency rollup, not a service-hour dashboard.
CNCS on the all-agencies list
Compare $3,360,420,794.38 and 2,244 awards only with other obligation totals from this extract. The hub does not advise applicants for service positions.
The all-agencies list is useful only inside this extract’s obligation definition and FY 2026 cap. 2,244 awards at a mean near $1.50 million fit commission and nonprofit grants rather than a member-level stipend ledger. Ranking on dollars alone hides that mix. Read CGAC 485 as an awarding-agency rollup, not a service-hour dashboard.
CNCS obligations versus member stipends
Living allowances follow program rules that are not this USAspending rollup. The packet facts are $3,360,420,794.38, 2,244 awards, CGAC 485, and FY 2026. Member counts and hour totals are omitted because they are not in the packet. A later USAspending extract can revise both the dollar total and the 2,244 count as new actions and modifications post against CGAC 485. Until that refresh, the documented book is 3360420794.38 in obligations. That figure is not a performance score, not an enacted one-year appropriation, and not a recommendation to apply for funds. It is the award-file rollup this packet carries through FY 2026.
Brand splits are not packet facts. Rank CNCS only against other obligation totals from this extract. The state table is place-of-performance coding on the 2,244 records. CGAC 485 is the awarding-agency identifier on every row in this rollup, and the overlay path stays /agencies/485/. The award population is 2,244 records. Those rows still sum to the same obligation total through fiscal year 2026. Readers who need place-of-performance should open the state table from that hub; readers who need peer context should open the all-agencies list. Neither view converts obligations into outlays.
