What Hosanna Community House Inc does
Mission
The mission of hosanna community house, doing business as hosanna school museum, is to collect, preserve, and interpret the history of harford county, maryland through the lens of the african american experience within national contexts.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The hosanna school museum significantly expanded its african american heritage preservation and public history initiatives in harford county. The museum now offers digital and immersive educational initiatives, including the "harford freedmen's education project," which documents schools established for formerly enslaved african americans during reconstruction, the "step back in time" 360-degree interactive video experience, the online exhibition trials and triumphs, and an interactive story map highlighting african american sites of memory across harford county. These initiatives are accessible worldwide. Hosanna also expanded public programming through its new three-day "freedom weekend" juneteenth commemoration, featuring a legacy empowerment workshop, the upper bay juneteenth festival, and a gospel celebration. Additionally, the museum launched an underground railroad bus tour series, based on extensive historical research that uncovered new sites. The inaugural tour sold out quickly and generated an extensive waiting list for future tours, demonstrating strong public interest in local african american history and heritage tourism.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $90k to $143k (+60%).
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: 2024 35% · 2025 76%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.
