What New Earth Organization does
Mission
Empowering system-impacted youth aged 13 to 25. Our mission is to provide mentor-based arts, education, and vocational programs to support these youth in reimagining their lives, making positive choices, and discovering their potential as future leaders.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Nec- new earth and our charter high school partner da vinci rise provide our young people with the opportunity to earn a high school diploma. Da vinci rise high seeks to create a highly responsive, holistic, and integrated educational model that meets the unique needs of youth navigating foster care, housing instability, probation, and/or other circumstances that have caused disruptions in their academic journeys. Through the facilitation of a flex-scheduling, credit recovery model, students are given the voice and choice needed to accomplish their academic goals while honoring the additional responsibilities they have in their lives. By engaging students through a relationship-focused learning experience we help our young people overcome individual obstacles and systemic barriers.
$1,308,819 spent50% of program spendingThe work we do with young people would be incomplete without much-needed full wrap-around and coordinated care that responds to the needs of each individual. Our team of professionals led by a licensed clinical social worker (lcsw) addresses the barriers each young person is experiencing and provides a variety of supportive services that help young people get on their feet, stand tall and reach for the sky.

(fluent love of words) poetry and music program focuses on helping young people discover and craft their inner voice, share their experiences, and express themselves through art. We offer f.l.o.w. Throughout youth detention facilities, continuation schools, group homes, and at our own arts & leadership center. Down to earth gardening is proven to be an effective therapeutic tool that is known to decrease stress levels and anxiety. This sense of peace helps our students face their frustrations and challenges while giving them a positive outlet for their expression. In a therapeutic sense, if students enjoy the fruits of their labor, they are more inclined to complete and enjoy their personal goals.

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 2017 to 2018, from $485k to $2.9M (+493%).
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: 2018 56% · 2019 65% · 2020 1% · 2021 17% · 2022 78% · 2023 62% · 2024 40%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
92% of NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (63% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 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
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 5 funders, grant income fell $75k → $59k.
9 of 26 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 63% 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 NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 25 of 26 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
NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 52% of grant income and the top three 68%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
79% 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 NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 98% · 2018 30% · 2019 45% · 2020 36% · 2021 41% · 2022 39% · 2023 43% — 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
27% of NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 38% 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
63% of NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $1.5M that is directly attributable, 56% of it comes from funders outside California, across 5 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.5M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
Against its field
NEW EARTH ORGANIZATION runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 5,127 arts & culture nonprofits its size.
