What Jewish Children's Regional Service does
Mission
The mission of jcrs is to provide needs-based resources that assist in funding jewish summer camp experiences, post-secondary education for jewish students, underwriting expenses that support jewish youth with special psychological, physical and social needs and providing economic support and consultation to jewish youth and their families in exceptional situations.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Camp - the Jewish Children's Regional Service provides partial scholarships for summer camp tuition for jewish children when a family is unable to pay the full costs. The amount of aid provided to any one child or family varies in accordance with the circumstances of the child and/or his or her family. Financial awards for camp assistance is typically lower if the family is able to obtain matching funds from other agencies and, conversely the scholarship.

Many of the college students who receive aid from the jcrs are from very low income families. Most of this group of students were also camp scholarshiprecipients when they were young. Typically, half of the college aid recipients are from single-parent homes.
$481,723 spentof which $389,500 as grants35% of program spendingSpecial needs & all outreach programs - clients come from a wide variety of jewish backgrounds and family situations. Their disabilities are physical, cognitive, developmental, emotional, behavioral, or psychosocial. Many are being raised by single parents, grandparents, or foster parents. Some are in residential care. Some are new immigrants. Some children have a parent in the military. Many come from dependent, at-risk families who struggle to provide the necessary care, supervision and stability to meet their children's needs. For all children, jcrs funding plans are formulated on the totality of their needs, their opportunities, and their resources. Special needs subsidies are granted for up to one year and can be renewed on a case-by-case basis. There is no limit on the length of time that a special needs child may receive subsidies from family life services - the agency consults on developmental problems and issues related to the development and needs of children. The pj library program provides a monthly book to jewish children under the age of eight for the purpose of scholastic and jewish enrichment.

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 $12M to $16M (+28%).
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: 2021 4% · 2022 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
75% of JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 21 funders to 28 funders, grant income rose $264k → $458k.
13 of 69 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% 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: $1.5M from 13 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Jewish Endowment Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE raised.
From the IRS filings of JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 69 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
JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
28% 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 JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 32% · 2018 24% · 2019 20% · 2020 19% · 2021 21% · 2022 19% · 2023 23% — 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
57% of JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% 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
61% of JEWISH CHILDREN'S REGIONAL SERVICE's grant income comes from Louisiana funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $467k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
