What Star C Corporation does
Mission
Star C Corporation is organized to revitalize communities and individuals through educational, gardening and wellness programs at low-income and blighted housing projects. Moreover, the corporation will promote and support its purposes through various activities for children, young adults and families including, but not limited to, after-school children's programs, community and individual gardens and health education programs through a wellness center.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
After school program - this program is designed as an extension of the school day. Too often the children in low-income apartment communities return from school to an empty household with no parental supervision because the parent(s) are working one to three jobs to support their families. We help to alleviate the risk of being alone for these children. Daily activities include exercise, a healthy snack, and school assigned homework(with assistance from our volunteers). Local activities such as girl scouts, music lessons and art activities are often part of the weekly program. The bonds of friendship formed by the children generate a strong sense of community.

The individuals in low-income housing communities usually have access to medical and wellness programs, but often need assistance in understanding and navigating the system. Star-c's health and wellness programs have three goals: 1) each resident understand the local healthcare system and the need for a primary care physician as their gatekeeper; 2) each resident has a primary care physician; and 3) each resident either has insurance or a plan to pay the physician. In addition to these goals, star-c provides other wellness activities including free educational programs around the topics of nutrition, hygiene, family planning, child nurturing, and others.
Eviction relief - assist tenants in qualifying housing with past due rent, utilities bills and other expenses incurred as a result of the covid-19 pandemic using funds provided by the federal government.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2022 to 2023, from $534k to $1.5M (+179%).
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: 2021 97% · 2022 94% · 2024 64% · 2025 64%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
86% of STAR C CORPORATION’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (61% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 16 funders, grant income rose $45k → $624k.
5 of 33 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 34% 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 STAR C CORPORATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 33 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
STAR C CORPORATION has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 22% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
44% 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 STAR C CORPORATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 52% · 2018 88% · 2019 43% · 2020 21% · 2021 42% · 2022 21% · 2023 40% — 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
40% of STAR C CORPORATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 42% 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
82% of STAR C CORPORATION's grant income comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $807k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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
STAR C CORPORATION's funding base is broadening — from 2 funders to 16 as grant income climbed.
