Programs

On its FY2020 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

Coronavirus hit and many became very ill and some died. We discontinued issuing donations to the public directly and moved on to folks with disaster related issues. I was diagnosed with the virus myself.

Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).

  1. On January 16, 2020, the Cheffen Wilson Milton Foundation issued housewares and clothes to elderly, disabled, unwed mothers and fathers, and veterans totaling $29,103.44 to over 39 recipients. Note, the products are donated to the CWMF and each item is distributed right back to the community.

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.
