What Friends of Crowell Hilaka does
Mission
Friends of Crowell Hilaka is a nonprofit advocacy group partnering with the rjrd to preserve, protect, enhance, and promote richfield heritage preserve, formerly crowell hilaka
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
336 acres of winding streams, lakes, and forests that had been closed off from the public for over 75 years. It had been farmed by the pioneer oviatt family and then became the estate of inventor jim kirby. During the 1920s kirby constructed a patented lake, a mill to generate electric power, a house air-conditioned with spring water, and a dance hall built on springs. Upstream, the neal family built their fairy tale houses and operated a thriving fruit farm. The land was purchased by the cleveland girl scouts in 1937 and enclosed for the protection of the girls. In 2015, the property was purchased by the citizens of richfield. It is governed by the richfield joint recreation district (rjrd). Richfield heritage preserve is open to the public every day, dawn to dusk. No admission charge. The main entrance is at 4374 broadview rd, just south of the richfield giant eagle. The oviatt gate (aka the south entrance) is located at 3771 oviatt road, just off of state route 303 the horse gate (aka the summer barn entrance) is located at 4225 oviatt road, just at the top of the long curving hill.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $180k to $257k (+43%).
How it's funded, over time

Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
32% 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 FRIENDS OF CROWELL HILAKA.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 94% · 2019 55% · 2020 94% · 2021 58% · 2022 35% · 2023 99% — broadly stable.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $26k 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.
