Program
Savor the square: savor the square implements recommendations from the nubian square market analysis (2020) in which residents and businesses voice a strong need for saturday and evening events. Launched in 2020, savor the square, nubian square's seasonal open-air marketplace located on the roxbury branch boston public library plaza, brings together existing brick-and-mortar businesses and entrepreneurial vendors into one marketplace located at the core of the business district. This amenity is free and open to the public. The program primarily serves the 54,905 residents of roxbury as well as visitors from surrounding neighborhoods and beyond, 25 roxbury-based vendors/micro-entrepreneurs, and 151 brick and mortar retail businesses operating in nubian square. Recent accomplishments include: hosting monthly savor the square markets (april-october) on roxbury branch boston public library plaza, hosting the third annual greater roxbury book fair, introducing new resources and opportunities into the community (e.g., health, employment), providing a venue and new audiences for local performing artists, increasing the revenue for vendors and brick and mortar businesses.

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 2023 to 2024, from $525k to $696k (+33%).
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 6% · 2023 27% · 2024 23%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of THE AMERICAN CITY COALITION INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (0% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.
