01What it does

What Trinity Child Development Center does

Mission

The mission of Trinity CDC is to provide quality, affordable care and education to young children and their families within our economically and ethnically diverse neighborhood. We strive to provide stability and support to the children in our care and to their families, so that together we can truly impact future generations.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

  1. We provide quality and affordable early care and education to an average of 45 children ages 1 through 5 Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. We also help the families of these children by facilitating regular two-way communication between the teachers and the families so that, as a team, we can provide the best consistent care for the children. Parent Support Groups are held regularly so that we may discuss challenging areas of development. Retention and continuing education for teachers is another piece of this service - we attempt to help teachers with higher education and provide continuing education classes for them so that they can be aware of and use best practices in the care and education of the children.

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.

How it's funded, over time

3 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 17% 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 TRINITY CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER’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

TRINITY CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER leans on a few funders — its largest provides 64% of grant income and the top three 88%; half comes from just 1 funder.

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

88% 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 TRINITY CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $43k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
