What Summer on the Hill Inc does
Mission
Soh is a year-round, supplemental academic program whose mission is to enrich the education of promising, low-income public school students from the bronx, washington heights, and harlem, prepare them for selective schools and colleges, and offer guidance to their parents. Soh is unique among nyc enrichment programs in enrolling promising 3rd grade students and working with them through high school graudation. Although housed on the campus of the horace mann school with access to its facilities, soh is an indepdendent 501(c)(3) organization that raises its own funds to operate a high-quality program. Each year, more than 200 families of 2nd graders apply for one of 40 seats. The number of applications demostrates a great unmet need for enrichment programs in our target areas.
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990.

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 2020 to 2021, from $297k to $400k (+35%).
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: 2017 1% · 2018 3% · 2019 4% · 2020 4% · 2021 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
78% of SUMMER ON THE HILL INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (57% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $236k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
