01What it does

What Christian New Creation Inc does

Mission

CNC's mission is to provide safe housing, mentoring, family reunification, and employment assistance to men released from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice TDCJ facilities, with the goal of giving them the opportunity to become productive citizens in a new, and much better, way of life.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Christian New Creation, Inc contributes to society by equipping and training former offenders in how to reintegrate into society and back within their families. This can be shown by the less than 5 percent recidivism rate for our Residents, versus the State of Texas rate of 21 percent. Our Residents find jobs, housing, attending religious services and learn how to function successfully in society.

    97% of program spending
  2. Christian New Creation Inc receives a multitude of donations of used clothing and household goods, more than can be used for the facility. To be good stewards of these donations, we created a thrift store to sell the abundant overflow to the community in a separate shop across from the facilities.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $6k → $33k.

3 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 52% 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 Christian New Creation 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

Christian New Creation Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 84%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

70% 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 Christian New Creation Inc.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

33% of Christian New Creation Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 31% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y

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

52% of Christian New Creation Inc's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $174k that is directly attributable, 94% of it comes from Texas funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $186k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
