01What it does

What Harvest Hands Community Development Corporation Inc does

Mission

Harvest hands is a catalyst of christ-centered, wholistic community development working alongside our neighbors to further healthy living, education, spiritual formation and economic development in south nashville.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Children and youth - harvest hands offers an after-school program during the school year and a full-day program in the summer for elementary, middle and high school students in south nashville. Harvest hands is a place where students can connect with positive role models and receive the additional support necessary for academic achievement and healthy spiritual development. We provide a healthy snack, opportunity for homework assistance and tutoring, opportunities to engage in the arts and recreational activities as well as experiential learning opportunities throughout the city. Harvest hands values families, children and youth, and we believe that neighborhood revitalization begins with investing in the lives of kids. Kids age 12-21 have additional leadership development opportunities through two microenterprise ventures, humphreys st coffee and soap, that double as mentoring programs. The vision is to develop young men and women into responsible leaders who achieve academic success, give back in service to others and the community, and mature in their relationship with god. We seek to develop long-term relationships with these youth that will serve to offset negative pressures…

02The organization over time

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $8k → $147k.

12 of 27 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 76% 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 HARVEST HANDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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.

How concentrated its funding is

HARVEST HANDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 44% of grant income and the top three 60%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

92% 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 HARVEST HANDS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INC.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Where its funders are

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.0M arriving through sponsors registered in 11 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.
