What Micah 6 Community does
Mission
Micah 6 Community is a community development organization working to build the neighborhoods that pontiac deserves. We manage community gardens, a produce store that works to fight the food desert, children's programming, community events and meals, and general community support.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Sprout fresh food store - this money supports the daily needs of the sprout building where we have a produce store that provides reduced-priced fruits and vegetables for our neighbors in the middle of a food desert.
$73,918 spent97% of program spendingWebster - in 2016, Micah 6 Community purchased the abandoned webster elementary school to turn into a community center. As the building has been going through development, it is being used as a storage space for programming materials and for other non-profits. It is also building relationships with the neighborhood and the rest of pontiac as micah 6 is developing plans for the community center.
Community houses - provide a place in the neighborhood where neighbors can hang out and come to events, as well as providing housing for some of our full-time volunteers so that they can live intentionally among our neighbors.
We have a variety of free community events throughout the year, we are working to turn an abandoned elementary school into a community center, we raise chickens to give their eggs to neighbors, we host volunteer events where we educate people on life in pontiac, we also have two events a week where we offer free meals in community.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 $3.5M to $23M (+545%).
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.
99% of MICAH 6 COMMUNITY’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (60% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 9 funders, grant income rose $400 → $407k.
12 of 35 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 49% 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 MICAH 6 COMMUNITY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 35 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
MICAH 6 COMMUNITY has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 21% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
69% 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 MICAH 6 COMMUNITY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 63% · 2019 100% · 2020 37% · 2021 30% · 2022 66% · 2023 39% — 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
33% of MICAH 6 COMMUNITY's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 37% 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
95% of MICAH 6 COMMUNITY's grant income comes from Michigan funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.9M 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.
