01What it does

What The Carmel Hill Fund does

Program

  1. The Carmel Hill Fund education program supports independent reading efforts in 100 schools in three cities: new york, new york; denver, colorado; and monroe, lousiana, reaching over 55,000 students during the 2023-24 school year. The education program mission is to promote literacy and foster a love of reading, particularly among at-risk youth in inner cities. To this end, we partner with schools to utilize renaissance learning's accelerated reader software program to help monitor completion and comprehension of student reading progress. Education program staff visit schools and assist principals, teachers, and librarians in the successful implementation of the reading program.

    $9,561,830 spent

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990-PF.

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.

How concentrated its funding is

THE CARMEL HILL FUND leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

50% 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 THE CARMEL HILL FUND.
