What Camp Livingston Inc does
Mission
Camp Livingston is a residential camp program for youth which shall enrich the lives of its campers and staff with a fun, unique, communal Jewish camping experience. We encourage the development of Jewish identity, enable the formation of lifelong friendships, and provide the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of challenging recreational and creative programming within a safe and inclusive environment.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
A total of 320 children between the ages of 7 and 17 were served during the summer of 2025. These children were immersed in an enriching community environment that afforded them ample opportunities to engage in many different sports, recreational and cultural activities. Some examples of these activities are swimming, arts and crafts, archery, kayaking, canoeing, drama, ropes course, tennis, basketball, soccer, and music - singing and instrumental. In addition, the camp engages in programming aimed at teaching campers about their Jewish heritage emphasizing Jewish values, customs and observances. As a result of the Camp Livingston program, campers gain self esteem and confidence and form lasting friendships with their cabin and unit mates all within a fun and exciting Jewish atmosphere.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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 $6.6M to $7.6M (+15%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 9% · 2021 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
48% of Camp Livingston Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (13% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $21k → $210k.
4 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 27% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $4.4M from 5 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Jewish Federation of Cincinnati). These are real filings, and they are not money Camp Livingston Inc raised.
From the IRS filings of Camp Livingston Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
Camp Livingston Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 34% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
78% 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 Camp Livingston Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 49% · 2018 52% · 2019 34% · 2020 32% · 2021 46% · 2022 30% · 2023 36% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
55% of Camp Livingston Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 64% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
Camp Livingston Inc draws 70% of its grant income from funders outside Ohio, across 6 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $441k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
