The first village zone in Kansas City, Missouri, is the Santa Fe neighborhood, which in 2022 experienced nine homicides. In 2023, there were two homicides: a 78 percent decrease. KC 360 partners collectively spurred 4,876 actions, invested 9,050 hours, and deployed $3.53 million of organizational resources.

It incentivizes the state government to invest more funds in educational facilities rather than to build more prisons simply. A temporary career campus is currently being utilized within Lansing prison. With the construction of a permanent career campus training will be expanded for in-demand careers and inmates more successfully matched with employers prior to reentry. Partners include the Kansas City and Wichita Chambers of Commerce, businesses, philanthropists, and the Kansas Department of Corrections. KC Common Good works with 20 organizations.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2023 to 2024, from $731k to $1.4M (+90%).
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.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $78k → $183k.
2 of 20 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 4% 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: $1.6M from 4 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Health Forward Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money KC COMMON GOOD INC raised.

How concentrated its funding is
KC COMMON GOOD INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 35% of grant income and the top three 63%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
36% 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 KC COMMON GOOD INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 70% · 2021 80% · 2022 73% · 2023 55% — 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
0% of KC COMMON GOOD INC's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 35% 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
KC COMMON GOOD INC draws 59% of its grant income from funders outside Missouri, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $36k 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.
