Compiled from public records and refreshed nightly; last updated Oct 26, 2026. Figures are as USAC publishes them; committed amounts are funding commitments, not payments. Contract end dates on June 30 are left out because many applicants enter the funding-year end instead. Check the source before acting. See something wrong? Tell us and we will correct it.
