Program

Wellness program new haven farms delivered our 18-week farm-based wellness program to 100 medically referred families, or approximately 500 individuals, who live within 200% of the federal poverty level and suffer from at least two risk factors for diabetes or diet-related chronic disease. Participants and their families learned cooking, nutrition, and farming for 2 hours/week on our urban farms. Each week of the program, participants receive a shared meal and a family-sized share of fruits and vegetables, along with culturally relevant recipes and handouts. Participant outcomes include 47.4% reported change in food insecurity status; 50% of program participants had a decrease in bmi, with average percent decrease of 30% in bmi score; 60 minute increase in weekly exercise per person; increase of 1.27 servings of fruits and vegetables per day per person; 91% reported changes in eating habits, including trying more vegetables after the program. Outside the growing season, participants gathered in monthly support groups to continue supporting participants' health goals and provide exercise classes. 80 families have gone on to grow their own food in the incubator garden program,…

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2020: the base narrowed from 7 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $95k → $39k.

3 of 11 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 NEW HAVEN FARMS INC’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

NEW HAVEN FARMS INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 36% 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

62% 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 HAVEN FARMS INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
