The Irvine Nature Center's grant-funded field trips provide Title I students with a half-day learning experience on their eight miles of trails through forest, wetlands, and meadows. Students participate in guided hikes with Irvine's naturalists, interact with Irvine's animal ambassadors, and partake in team-building activities. Each field trip can serve up to 40 students and has a minimum of three naturalists who lead students through activity stations. Irvine field trips correspond with the Baltimore County science curriculum standards and serve a wide range of ages from pre-kindergarten to eighth grade. The Ellie Kelly Field Trip Fund will be able to provide sixteen fully funded field trips, including transportation.

Backyard Basecamp is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in northeast Baltimore City. BLISS Meadows, an existing ten-acre land reclamation project, operates a market garden, a summer camp, and an orchard; raises chickens; and has established an apiary. The market garden grows 20,000 pounds of produce, all of which is sold, shared, or consumed. BLISS has brought the benefits of fresh produce to the area with nutritional education and food preparation workshops. This pass-through grant went toward the creation of a community garden at BLISS Meadows. St. George's will support the installation of fourteen raised beds and help maintain six native pollinator gardens totaling 3,000 square feet. This community garden will be available to neighbors to cultivate their own fresh produce.

The 3 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $175,200.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 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 2024 to 2025, from $109k to $66k (−39%).
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.
97% of ST GEORGES GARDEN CLUB INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
2 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 23% 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 ST GEORGES GARDEN CLUB 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
ST GEORGES GARDEN CLUB INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 34% of grant income and the top three 74%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
57% 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 ST GEORGES GARDEN CLUB INC.
“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.
Where its funders are
ST GEORGES GARDEN CLUB INC draws 85% of its grant income from funders outside Maryland, across 3 states in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $20k 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.
