What Hollywood Police Activities League does
Mission
Hollywood pal drives positive change in the community we serve by partnering with lapd and school-aged youth in programs that celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion and inspire personal excellence, social awareness, and civic engagement. We create opportunities for officer and volunteer led sports, academics and enrichment programs for youth to provide impactful opportunities for personal growth and development.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Hollywood pal martial arts trains children (grades k - 12) in the art of judo, jiu jitsu, tae kwon do, karate and mixed martial arts under the supervision of professional instructors and an lapd pal officer, participants are provided classes based on age group or belt levels which are offered up to 5 days a week. Additionally, they participate in local and national tournaments throughout the year.

Team placement and league play encourages healthy relationships and sportsmanship. Players practice with teams and play competitive seasons of soccer and travel tournaments. Soccer develops more than the athletic skills needed to play. It develops strong friendships, teaches leadership, socialization and helps build self-confidence for every child. Volunteer coaches and pal officers mentor and serve as positive role models for youth and their families.

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 2020 to 2021, from $150k to $93k (−38%).
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: 2019 28% · 2020 70% · 2021 61% · 2022 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 7 funders, grant income rose $65k → $172k.
5 of 18 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $28k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Community Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE raised.
From the IRS filings of HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 17 of 18 funders by total. 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
HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 52% of grant income and the top three 88%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
95% 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 HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 76% · 2018 43% · 2019 47% · 2020 60% · 2021 56% · 2022 91% · 2023 78% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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 long its funders stay
33% of HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 44% give in more than one year at all.
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
HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE draws 90% of its grant income from funders outside California, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $82k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
Against its field
HOLLYWOOD POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE's funding base is broadening — from 5 funders to 7 as grant income climbed.
