Programs
Youth & workforce development services are funded by private foundation grants, most especially from the cleveland foundation, as well as public contracts with cuyahoga metropolitan housing authority (cmha), and intermediaries such as cleveland neighborhood progress (cnp), starting point, as well as individual donations. Bpdc assists people with job readiness, training and job search activities, with a particular emphasis on career tracks in construction and the trades. Youth development programming is the strongest component of our workforce development services, through which we introduce young people to career and after- school educational opportunities, extensive volunteer and employment experiences, entrepreneurship and service learning. The agency offers tutoring, arts and educational programming for young people in several out-of-school time program locations. One location is the robinson g. Jones school, another is at an after-school program at the cmha riverside park estates, and finally we offer other enrichment and career exploration programs at various sites around the neighborhood including local public and private schools.
$2,528,793 spent100% of program spendingCommunity development services promote resilience and equity amid our challenging local housing and commercial markets. These services are funded by federal community development block grant (cdbg) funds, local city of cleveland funds through the city of cleveland department of community development, private funds through the intermediary organization cleveland neighborhood progress, and individual donations. We acquire vacant and often abandoned houses to renovate as higher quality homes and re-introduce them into the local housing market. We may coordinate the construction ourselves or work with local developers to renovate and return the housing to productive use. Our programs provide exterior home inspection and housing improvement referral services, coordination of resident engagement in public and private improvement projects (such as road projects, school construction or housing construction and redevelopment). We assist retail/commercial and industrial businesses looking to expand their business, improve their property or locate in our neighborhood.
Neighborhood services are funded by public community development block grant funds, private grants, and individual donations. We assist low- income seniors in need of minor home repairs or grounds maintenance so they can maintain a healthy quality of life living in their neighborhood homes. Property improvements and maintenance services include cutting high grass and removing excessive yard debris to help the senior citizens maintain their yard, respond to city citations, and avoid housing violations. For seniors and other neighbors we coordinate volunteers and conduct neighborhood clean-up campaigns throughout the year.

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 2022 to 2023, from $1.6M to $1.9M (+13%).
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: 2017 46% · 2018 70% · 2019 60% · 2020 74% · 2021 70% · 2022 77% · 2023 61% · 2024 56% · 2025 75%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
89% of JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (61% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

2 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 26% 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 JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 15 of 16 funders by total. Association, not causation.

JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
96% 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 JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 87% · 2018 57% · 2019 83% · 2020 83% · 2021 88% · 2022 87% · 2023 37% — diversifying over time.
“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
29% of JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 31% 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
99% of JEFFERSON-PURITAS WEST PARK CDC's grant income comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $285k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
