01What it does

What Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association does

Mission

The Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association (PPNA) works to enhance the quality of life in the Powderhord Park Neighborhood by faciliting community engagement, embracing a diversity of voices and fostering economic and community development.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. The end of 2024 marked 44 years of PPNA striving to support the community in a myriad of ways to animate its mission. A central way that PPNA fosters economic development is through its annual Powderhorn Art Fair. In 2024, this arts-centered celebration highlighted over two hundered artists who collectively earned an estimated $330,000 in revenue by participating in this event. One way that PPNA embraces a diversity of voices is through our various communication channels. This includes maintaining four distinct websites that collectively attracted just over 42,000 unique visitors in 2024. In support of facilitating community engagement, PPNA brought together an estimated 25,000 folks by hosting four annual events. Our work to foster community development is furthered by establishing and maintaining partnerships with a few hundred community partners and several hundred volunteers. This equated to an estimated 4,250 hours of engagement with partners and volunteers in 2024.

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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $30k → $94k.

5 of 15 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 44% 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 Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association’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

Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 22% 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

58% 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 Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association.

“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.

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $247k 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.
