What District 2 Community Enhancement Corporation does

Programs

Instructors and industry professionals bring a hands on approach to the classroom as students are introduced to various aspects of fashion. In addition to receiving an overview of the business, technical, and creative side of fashion, students are allowed to select one area of concentration from the following five options: Photography & Videography, Skincare & Make-up, Fashion Design & Apparel Construction, Modeling, and Webpage Graphic Design.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2021 to 2022, from $2.1M to $2.0M (−5%).
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: 2021 83% · 2022 77% · 2023 83%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
84% of DISTRICT 2 COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT CORPORATION’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (62% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 3 reported years ran a deficit.
