Programs

  1. Cic provided loans and financial assistance in pima county and the interconnected regional economy of southern arizona to businesses that were unable to obtain such through and/or that have been historically underserved by traditional capital access institutions.

  2. Cic's home ownership support services empower first-time homebuyers across arizona, particularly in pima county, by providing essential financial assistance. Through our mortgage credit certificate (mcc) program, income- qualified buyers can reduce their annual mortgage interest by claiming up to 2,000 as a federal tax credit. This benefit is renewable each year, adding up to potential savings of over 50,000 across the life of the mortgage. The mcc program is funded by the pima county industrial development authority. In addition to the mcc program, we administer down payment assistance programs in tucson and pima county. Cic also serves as the fiscal agent for city of tucson processing payments for contracts that support work for homelessness diversion and prevention.

Bond compliance services consist of supporting bond recipients (schools) with their contractual obligations to provide continuing disclosure information to the electronic municipal market access (emma) website. These disclosures serve an essential role for a properly and efficiently functioning bond market by enhancing transparency for investors and in the bond market at large, as well as helping preserve/enhance schools' bond ratings.

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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $6k → $401k.

4 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 19% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $200k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Fhr Cares Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money COMMUNITY INVESTMENT CORPORATION raised.

From the IRS filings of COMMUNITY INVESTMENT 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

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT CORPORATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 58% of grant income and the top three 83%; half comes from just 1 funder.

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

37% 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 INVESTMENT CORPORATION.

“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.

How long its funders stay

25% of COMMUNITY INVESTMENT CORPORATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 42% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $293k 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.
