01What it does

What Napa County Bicycle Coalition does

Mission

The Napa County Bicycle Coalition's mission is to make it safe, convenient, and accessible to ride a bicycle anywhere in napa county, for all ages and abilities.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Education - in the fall, we launched our three-day safe routes to school in-class bike safety education for napa county 4th and 5th grade classes, which included two days of in-class instruction and one day of on-bike instruction (bike rodeo). We provided 9 weeks of education at 6 schools, teaching over 850 students about the benefits of walking and biking to school, bike safety, and traffic laws. We led 18 bike rodeos in schools and summer learning programs in total, providing safety education and on-bike practice that benefited over 1,750 students. In the fall, we were also able to begin providing helmets to students in need during bike rodeos and distributed 226 helmets. We held 15 bike safety-oriented workshops throughout the county at various community locations, ranging from safety summits with parents at schools to family biking workshops in public parks, reaching 86 attendees.

  2. Encouragement - we celebrated bike to work & school day on may 18, with 991 participating students and residents and 36 countywide energizer stations (25 schools, 11 public), which we stocked with bike swag and snacks to fuel all those bike commutes. We also organized a record-breaking walk and roll to school day on october 4, with 2,135 local students walking, biking, and rolling to school. Students at the 25 participating schools were greeted at welcome tables by encouraging volunteers handing out healthy snacks and fun swag. Between bikefest rides like kidical mass and monthly tgif rides, we were joined by 149 youth and adult riders for 11 community bike rides, which provide more opportunities for riders of all ages and abilities to ride in a positive, group environment. We also provided bike valet at 9 community events and parked 1,535 bikes in total, helping to make local events more bike-friendly and sustainable.

  3. Policy & advocacy - our advocacy with public agency officials, agency staff, and other decision makers throughout napa county contributed to several advances for bicyclists and pedestrians, such as launching regular broom-sweeping of napa bike lanes, pilot traffic safety projects in st. Helena and calistoga, the first separated bike lane plans by the city of napa, engaging local residents to secure several improvements on howell mountain, and the inclusion of class ii bike lanes on one of napa's key collector roads.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 3 funders, grant income rose $12k → $20k.

4 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 20% 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 NAPA COUNTY BICYCLE COALITION’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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

NAPA COUNTY BICYCLE COALITION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 31% 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

57% 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 NAPA COUNTY BICYCLE COALITION.

first grant+1y+2y+3y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $25k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
