01What it does

What Community Caring and Sharing does

Mission

Our mission: is to reach out and help those in need with food, clothing, community services and educational programs, by partnering with local government agencies, schools, businesses, churches, civic groups, clubs, neighborhood organizations, along with community members and their leaders to help improve the lives and situations of the residents and the community of mars hill, indianapolis

As stated on its FY2023 Form 990-EZ.

Programs

  1. The mission holds a weekly food pantry pick up. Through is program the mission was able to help supplement food and personal items to the local community. These items came from a combination of donations made by businesses and individuals to the mission and purchases made directly by the mission. This is an established program that was able to help an average of 12 households per week.

    $10,070 spent
    28% of program spending
  2. With the cost of living continuing to rise we have increased the amount of assistance we have provided for the cost of housing, utilities and other living necessities. As people in the community are still struggling with work and the continued rise in the basic cost of living we have continued to help with the everyday expenses.

    $25,325 spent
    72% of program spending
  3. We partnered with a local business, ray skillman, and toys for tots to organize our annual toy and clothing christmas giveaway. Through this partnership we provided toys and clothing to approximately 150 children with an average child recieving 150 in items. This partnership did not cost the organization anything as all costs were paid for by ray skillman and the toys were provided by toys for tots.

The 3 programs described on its FY2023 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $35,395.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income rose $5k → $6k.

4 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 44% 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 COMMUNITY CARING AND SHARING’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 5 of 6 funders by total. 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

COMMUNITY CARING AND SHARING leans on a few funders — its largest provides 56% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 1 funder.

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

44% 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 COMMUNITY CARING AND SHARING.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $26k 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.
