Overview
Mission
To foster healthy, resilient communities by activating underused spaces in urban neighborhoods and expanding access to educational, economic, and sustainability resources. Through collaboration with city and local partners, we equip residents and emerging community leaders with the tools needed to drive equitable and lasting neighborhood revitalization.
What it reported doing in 2024
RealDev School is a real estate development education program designed to educate and equip women interested in community development and neighborhood revitalization. The 2024 cohort enrolled 30 women committed to learning strategies for reducing vacant and abandoned properties across Baltimore City and successfully graduated 28 participants.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 90% 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 a large share of total spending goes to programs. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and a relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
