As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
We expanded Startup NYCHA, our business accelerator for public housing residents, after piloting the program with 23 resident entrepreneurs in 2024. In 2025, we held 10+ pop-up workshops reaching 270+ residents and grew demand for year-round programming with NYCHA and community partners.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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 2024 to 2025, from $90k to $12k (−86%).
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.
28% of CAMBIO LABS CO’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (57% for the typical peer).
