Programs

Form 990, part iii, line 2, new program services: expanded program offerings to include on-site shsat classes and remote english as a second language (esl) and spanish language tutoring.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
The cmcc on-site and remote after-school programs operated from september to june providing homework assistance and tutoring services to school-age children and youth, monday to friday from 2:30 to 6:00 pm. In addition to academic support and enrichment, students were served a home-cooked nutritious supper meal daily on-site. Ninety-percent of students enrolled made improvements in their academics. Each semester at least twenty dedicated cmcc team members worked together to positively impact students.

In addition to academics, students participated in off-site trips, learned how to play a musical instrument, worked together on service projects and hosted a community day event at a nearby park. All these endeavors were achieved with the help and commitment of cmcc staff, teachers, interns and volunteers.

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 2021 to 2022, from $162k to $368k (+127%).
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 8% · 2021 39% · 2022 17% · 2023 38% · 2024 41%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
56% of CHINESE METHODIST CENTER CORPORATION’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $5k → $28k.
2 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of CHINESE METHODIST CENTER CORPORATION’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
CHINESE METHODIST CENTER CORPORATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 90% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
99% 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 CHINESE METHODIST CENTER CORPORATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 99% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — 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.
Where its funders are
100% of CHINESE METHODIST CENTER CORPORATION's grant income comes from New York funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
