WE MEASURE SUCCESS NOT JUST BY DOLLARS DISBURSED, BUT ALSO BY THE VOLUME OF PRIVATE CAPITAL LEVERAGED, THE STRENGTH AND SUSTAINABILITY OF THE BUSINESSES WE SUPPORT, AND, MOST CRITICALLY, THE NUMBER OF LOCAL JOBS CREATED OR RETAINED. THESE METRICS REFLECT OUR COMMITMENT TO FOSTERING INCLUSIVE ECONOMIC GROWTH AND EMPOWERING ENTREPRENEURS FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS TO BUILD AND SCALE THEIR ENTERPRISES.THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC PRESENTED AN UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGE TO THE SMALL BUSINESS COMMUNITY. IN RESPONSE, GJLDC AND OUR AFFILIATE GJDC SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED OUR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OFFERINGS, THE URGENCY OF THE PANDEMIC PROMPTED US TO MORE THAN DOUBLE OUR OUTREACH. WORKING CLOSELY WITH FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT PARTNERS, WE SERVED AS A TRUSTED RESOURCE DURING A PERIOD OF CRISIS, ENSURING OUR BUSINESS COMMUNITY HAD ACCESS TO ACCURATE GUIDANCE AND CRITICAL CAPITAL.AS WE CONTINUE TO EMERGE FROM THE EFFECTS OF THE PANDEMIC, GJLDC REMAINS FOCUSED ON GROWTH AND OPPORTUNITY. IN 2025, WE MADE 18 NEW LOANS, INCLUDING BOTH TERM LOANS AND LINES OF CREDIT, WITH AN AVERAGE LOAN AMOUNT OF $19,400. THESE LOANS SUPPORTED A DIVERSE RANGE OF INDUSTRIES AND HELPED BUSINESSES EXPAND, STABILIZE OPERATIONS, AND HIRE NEW STAFF.SINCE THE INCEPTION OF OUR LOAN FUND, GJLDC HAS LOANED OR LEVERAGED MORE THAN $52.1 MILLION, DIRECTLY CONTRIBUTING TO THE CREATION OR RETENTION OF OVER 2,100 JOBS. THESE RESULTS UNDERSCORE THE IMPORTANCE OF OUR WORK IN BUILDING RESILIENT LOCAL ECONOMIES AND SUPPORTING SMALL BUSINESSES AS ENGINES OF JOB CREATION AND NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
