What Crudup-Ward Activity Center does
Mission
Founded in November 1996, the Crudup-Ward Activity Center (CWAC) is a 501 (c) 3 Non-Profit establishment located at 630 Longview Street, Forest, Scott County, Mississippi. The CWAC was strategically built with a mission dedicated to offering assistance to low-income families, such as after school support, as well as summer feeding program for youths; promoting the development of parenting skills; promoting Welfare Reform Programs-such as for TANF clients that will increase family stability; implementing workshop programs that will help women entrepreneurs and others start or enhance their business; providing food pantry services to families in need; and improving family access to other resources such as single family housing's packager under the USDA-RD program. Since Covid, the organization has downsized the programs to mainly include food pantry services, assist small entrepreneurs with business plans and grant research, and has MOU as Packager for USDA-RD's single family housing.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2023 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
Through the years, Crudup-Ward Activity Center decreased services as funds decreased. In addition, once covid arrived, certain safety and sanitation duties increased especially for facility rental and food pantry services. However, advisory board activity continued to become also non functional.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
Essential Programs were operated in 2022: 1. Food Pantry Program 2. Single Family Housing Loans and Grants Program, as well backlog in administration.

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 2022 to 2023, from $346k to $29k (−92%).
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.
0% of CRUDUP-WARD ACTIVITY CENTER’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $0 → $6k.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 CRUDUP-WARD ACTIVITY CENTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 1 of 2 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.
Where its funders are
100% of CRUDUP-WARD ACTIVITY CENTER'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $64k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.

CRUDUP-WARD ACTIVITY CENTER's revenue fell 75% between 2020 and 2024.
