What Federation of Italian-American Organizations of Brooklyn Ltd does
Mission
The federation, a not-for-profit charitable community service organization, has been a leader in bridging the rich diversity of our multi-cultural communities by delivering free programs and services to help improve the quality of life for all children, youth, families and seniors. "il cintro" is the first italian-american multicultural community center in new york. We are located in southern brooklyn, home to italian-americans since the early 1900s. Il cintro serves as a resource for the italian- american population and hopes to preserve the heritage and culture of this vibrant community. One major theme of il cintro is to acknowledge and disseminate a positive image and legacy of italian-american men and women. While working towards this goal, we look forward to strengthening the ties among the generations of italian-americans in the community and working with all individuals who share this common bond.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $18M to $19M (+6%).
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.

55% 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.
