Overview

Mission

Micah 6 community is a community development organization working to build the neighborhoods that pontiac deserves. We manage community gardens, a produce store that works to fight the food desert, children's programming, community events and meals, and general community support.

What it reported doing in 2024

Webster - in 2016, micah 6 community purchased the abandoned webster elementary school to turn into a community center. As the building has been going through development, it is being used as a storage space for programming materials and for other non-profits. It is also building relationships with the neighborhood and the rest of pontiac as micah 6 is developing plans for the community center.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
