Programs
Direct rental assistance to 244 families to prevent eviction and secure affordable housing.mac focuses on the households that have had past stability and only have a temporary financial crisis. By having the rent paid, homelessness is avoided, credit is not damaged, the family remains somewhat stable and everyone can go about living productive lives of work and school. Many hard working families get into a temporary bind due to illness, transportation problems, job loss or large unexpected bills such as car repair and medical expenses.
$790,323 spentof which $344,996 as grants58% of program spendingMac provided 2,688 families with remote grocery assistance and 10,697 bags of groceries.for many families, struggling to keep food on the table is a challenge. The increasing cost of food and the lack of grocery stores in the areas where our clients live contribute to the problem. Since most of the people we serve do not have cars, it is costly to take public transportation to the store. A round trip marta pass costs five dollars and the trip often takes more than one hour. For working people, this is difficult and the mac food pantry is the closest option for food.
$386,351 spentof which $270,179 as grants29% of program spendingUtility assistance to prevent disconnection of service to 296 families.with rising utility costs, utility assistance has become more important than ever. Lack of utility service can cause a family to be evicted from its home, lead to fires in the home, and cause extreme discomfort and health hazards and thereby ultimately causing the family to incur higher deposits for future service. Without assistance, some families are never able to become current on their service and cannot qualify for lower rates or budget billing. It is difficult for a working person to be prepared for work if they are not able to shower and dress in a home with adequate lighting, cooling or heating.

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 $256k to $661k (+159%).
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 10% · 2018 10% · 2019 12% · 2020 33% · 2021 37% · 2022 31% · 2023 10% · 2024 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
53% 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 MIDTOWN ASSISTANCE CENTER INC.
