The mission of the Civic Leadership Project is to improve the capacity of communities, and especially their nonprofit organizations, to address the major social and economic challenges we face.
DC Tutoring & Mentoring Initiative: The goal of DCTMI is to create a public campaign to get a volunteer tutor or mentor for the 2 out of 3 DC students reading below grade level (60,000+ students) or with other academic or non-academic needs -- but also to do something even bigger: Show that a community can work together around a shared civic and moral vision. We recruit and place volunteers with 50 partner tutoring and mentoring organizations and schools (up from 40 last year). The foundation for our work is through volunteer canvassing at farmers markets and other public events and spaces. We also do outreach to religious congregations and employers, and use social media and other approaches. We measure our results both in terms of short-term recruitment and long-term change in our civic culture. In terms of the short-term, we recruited 1,815 people in 2019 (up 13% from 2018) and have built our DCTMI mailing list to more than 5,000 people. We do not have simple metrics for assessing our impact on civic culture but it feels as though our approach is increasingly resonating with the public.
The Community Platform is a web-based and mobile-friendly application hosted by our partner organizations - community foundations, state nonprofit associations, United Ways, universities and others - in more than a dozen communities and states around the country. The goal is to provide locally-customable sites that permit nonprofits, funders, students and community members to map and understand where services are being delivered in relationship to community needs, share information and resources, and encourage people and businesses to become more involved as volunteers and donors. We continued to support 10 Platforms in 2019.
Form 990 Online is a web-based system that permits nonprofit organizations and their preparers to create their IRS Form 990s online and either electronically file their return with the IRS or print them and mail them in. In 2019, the system was used by more than 13,200 organizations and is completely free for nearly half of the organizations -- the 6,400 that reported less than $100,000 in revenue. In addition, we support state charity registrations in collaboration with the states of New York, Hawaii and Michigan.
