What Neighborhood Land Power Project does
Mission
Neighborhood Land Power Projects mission is to build a neighborhood rooted food and land system through community leadership developtment and land based strategies in west philadelphia
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Neighborhood food farms (nf) was founded by utc and three community leaders as a solution to the food insecurity and the growing number of abandoned lots in haddington. After signifigant remediation, nf farm is now a fully functioning three-quarter acre urban vegetable farm. In addition, we have partnered with neighbors to develop 27 other vacant lots into pocket parks, community gardens, and educational spaces. Together, three sites compromise a neighborhood food system that annually produces around 3,000 pounds of sustainably grown vegetables. The community gardens are open to all neighbors and serve as public spaces to access land, tools, resources, and knowledge to grow food together.

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 2021 to 2022, from $597k to $1.2M (+106%).
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 13% · 2018 1% · 2020 3% · 2021 2% · 2022 3% · 2023 2% · 2024 13%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of NEIGHBORHOOD LAND POWER PROJECT’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (16% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year

7 of 48 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 NEIGHBORHOOD LAND POWER PROJECT’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 48 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
NEIGHBORHOOD LAND POWER PROJECT has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 11% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left
38% 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 NEIGHBORHOOD LAND POWER PROJECT.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 32% · 2018 22% · 2019 26% · 2020 23% · 2021 14% · 2022 16% · 2023 19% — 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.

52% of NEIGHBORHOOD LAND POWER PROJECT's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% 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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $516k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
