What African Civic Leadership Program does
Mission
ACLP creates a platform for young leaders and community activists to exchange innovative ideas, approaches, and best practices to address the most pertinent social justice issues in Africa. This platform allows young people to contribute to community service and take leadership roles in the civil society sector through active and assertive engagement with community-based projects relating to a wide range of issues pertinent to their respective communities.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
ACLP continued to develop the Executive Civil Society Leadership program. It continued to support the Civil Society Resource Center (CSRC) previously launched to provide resources and support to existing and prospective civil society and its leadership.
$0 spent
The program described on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $0.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $1k to $54k (+3818%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
0% of AFRICAN CIVIC LEADERSHIP PROGRAM’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
56% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund AFRICAN CIVIC LEADERSHIP PROGRAM.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 70% · 2021 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
