What Joi Community Outreach does
Mission
J.O.I. Community Outreach is a cultural arts organization dedicated to producing arts and entertainment-focused programming. Through its commitment to equity in both practices and programming, J.O.I. Community Outreach strives to serve thousands of youth and adults. The organization presents culturally relevant events aimed at educating the community through the transformative power of arts and entertainment. Despite historically lower arts participation rates reported by underserved communities with rich cultural identities, J.O.I. Community Outreach remains steadfast in its consistent engagement efforts with these groups to promote inclusivity and cultural enrichment.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
J.O.I. Community Outreach continues to serve youth and adults by presenting culturally relevant events that educate the community through arts and entertainment. Our organization serves and is accountable to communities that are at immediate risk of cultural erasure and displacement within Austin. Our organization operates from and for the Historic East Austin area, providing community events/festivals, activities, youth advocacy, education through entertainment and is deeply rooted in the African American cultural history in the City of Austin. Our long-term service history has solidified Jump On It as a community institution. We bridge gaps between youth and adults, the community and law enforcement, city officials and residents, and native and new Black Austinites through forums, festivals, and awards ceremonies. Our 26 years of consistency have fostered a sense of belonging and pride among participants, many of whom were youth returning as adults to engage in and support the program.
$180,176 spent100% of program spendingThrough our youth programming, we have successfully established the Jump On It Radio program. The program's primary goals are as follows: To foster the development of leadership skills and positive attitudes among participating youth; To provide a platform for young individuals to actively engage in problem-solving within their communities, ensuring their input is integral to the solutions rather than having decisions imposed on them; and To offer comprehensive training across six key areas: Communication, Teamwork, Personal Identity, Project Management, Professionalism, and Cultural Competency. These objectives align with our mission to empower youth and promote their active involvement in community development.
$0 spent0% of program spendingJump On It exemplifies "Black Culture 360" by curating educational panels, workshops, and community forums that facilitate dialogue among residents, city officials, and stakeholders. Our year around programming, enriched by our flagship Jump On It Week conference offering diverse cultural experiences, distributes essential resources and opportunities.

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 2019 to 2020, from $29k to $130k (+353%).
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 0% · 2023 79% · 2024 100%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of JOI COMMUNITY OUTREACH’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (83% for the typical peer).
