What Community Help in Park Slope Inc does
Mission
Community help in park slope, inc. ("chips") is a nonsectarian, voluntary, community-based new york not-for-profit corporation chartered in 1977. Its mission is twofold: to provide support and temporary housing to new and expectant mothers, and to feed those in need through their food pantry and soup kitchen.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Food distribution/hunger prevention - during 2024, chips greatly expanded our services to accommodate an increase in need, especially for our pantry services. We served approximately 190,000 meals, and distributed approximately 25,000 pantry bags to food insecure residents of our community. Our pantry program almost tripled from 2023 to 2024 as a result of the addition of our mobile pantry van late in 2023. This unbelievable response to food insecurity in nyc was accomplished with the help of volunteers, who provided over 38,000 hours of assistance.
$2,316,229 spent79% of program spendingFrances residence - during 2024 we provided housing assistance to fifteen homeless mothers, six of whom gave birth while at the frances residence. One of the mothers found permanent housing, three moved in with family, three returned to path (dhs shelter system), with one additional mother actively seeking permanent housing. Of the remaining eight residents, four were either employed or enrolled in a training course.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2019 to 2020, from $1.1M to $1.9M (+71%).
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 5% · 2021 11% · 2022 9% · 2023 3% · 2024 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

58% 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.
