The Century Club focuses on supporting the long-term viability and stability of the community partners to enable them to address critical issues that affect us all, particularly in those youth most at-risk to live in poverty, experience homelessness, face food insecurities, or spend time in the foster care system.Throughout the partnership, selected nonprofits receive strategic development support, access to donation software, and engage in opportunities of collaboration, volunteerism, and brand exposure.Through an in-depth selection process, the Century Club partners with San Diego charities that provide direct services to at-risk youth and their families for participation in CFY. Once charities are selected, the Century Club works with each charity to focus on improving the following three key challenge areas that the Century Club has found to be common among charities: 1) Donor engagement; 2) lack of resources; and 3) community awareness of the charity and causes they support.Selected nonprofits…

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 2022 to 2023, from $2.2M to $4.4M (+96%).
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: 2021 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
13% of CENTURY CLUB OF SAN DIEGO’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (80% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year

9 of 30 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 20% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
CENTURY CLUB OF SAN DIEGO leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 78%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
90% 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 CENTURY CLUB OF SAN DIEGO.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 73% · 2018 54% · 2019 60% · 2020 71% · 2021 70% · 2022 76% · 2023 75% — broadly stable.
“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
35% of CENTURY CLUB OF SAN DIEGO's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 37% 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
CENTURY CLUB OF SAN DIEGO draws 87% of its grant income from funders outside California, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $578k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
