What South Carolina Center for Fathers and Families does
Mission
To provide the means for fathers to become great dads, the South Carolina Center for Fathers and Families (Center) works with community-based fatherhood programs across the state of South Carolina providing ongoing leadership, coordination, technical assistance, training, evaluation, and assistance with resource development.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
The South Carolina Center for Fathers and Families (Center) was established in 2002 as an outreach ministry of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine. The Fatherhood initiative of the Sisters of Charity Foundation of South Carolina (Foundation) led to the establishment of six fatherhood organizations. The Center, through a partnership with the Foundation and the South Carolina Department of Social Services, provides financial support for these programs. The community-based programs provide services to low-income fathers around responsible fatherhood, job readiness and employment, parenting and co-parenting, healthy relationships, and additional services on a case-by-case basis. To date, the Center has served more than 25,000 fathers and families and has impacted the lives of more than 56,000 children.
$5,962,673 spentof which $4,900,348 as grants93% of program spendingThe Jobs Not Jail program sponsored through state appropriation since 2012 has been very successful. This program offers fathers who are behind in child support payments an alternative to incarceration. Through employment training, these fathers can obtain work at a living wage which in turn enables them to support their children. In 2023, this program gave 182 men the opportunity to gain employment and meet their child support obligations rather than go to jail. This resulted in savings to taxpayers of $2,096,640.

With improved health, fathers will maintain better work records, which will enable them to retain employment and support their children. With the ability to support their children, these fathers can become an integral part of their children's lives.

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 $2.2M to $7.1M (+217%).
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.

Who funds it, year by year

3 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 16% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
71% 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.

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. $215k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
