What Fontana Community Foundation does
Mission
The Fontana Community Foundation serves as the philanthropic arm of the City of Fontana, California. It was established on November 15, 2005, as a non-profit benefit corporation under Nonprofit Benefit Corporation Law for public purposes. The Foundation's main objective is to aid and assist in the implementation, improvement, and maintenance of public services that promote the health, welfare, and education of local citizens in Fontana and surrounding Communities.

Programs
Mayor's Education Coalition partnered with Tomorrow's Talent LLC to help with preparing, organizing, and executing hands-on business experiences for high school students to expose them to various skills that can be applied to different occupations. These business experiences are called Pathfinder Days.

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 $138k to $485k (+251%).
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.
11% of FONTANA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (86% for the typical peer).
