Mission and programs · 2024

• Economic Mobility:Lakeviews Hierarchy of needs begins with the Lakeview Community and their physiological and safety needs with things like food, shelter, and personal security. Having these needs met, fi rst, is the pathway to love & belonging, esteem, and self-actualization taking place. Utilizing the Universal Basic Income model, we have put into place a program to help meet those essential needs, empowering the residents of Lakeview to educate themselves and engage in the solution-oriented problem solving centered around LNAs 4 Areas of Programming: Child & Family Stability, Prevention of Displacement, Economic Mobility, and Civic Awareness. The Gift Card Program is the core short term solution that lays the groundwork for the strategic long term plan.Residents are eligible for gift cards if they engage with Lakeview Neighborhood Alliance activities and attend a certain number of Lakeview Neighborhood Alliance events over the course of the year. In FY 23, LNA served 156 community residents through the gift card program. Residents received $100 per event/activity over the course of the year. The Merancas grant received in 2023 funded this program and also helped to complete a $250,000 matching grant from the Yates Fund.Measurements from our 2023 Impact Report (surveyed from the program members) detail how the program was helpful with over 65% of residents reporting being able to save money and better able to access household items. Clothing, hygiene items, and groceries are the top 3 items being reported as their gift card expenditures. We advocate on the belief of the correlation in meeting the basic needs and the improvement in civic activities like voting in an election, helping a neighbor or family member in need, and volunteering at a religious institution or organization in the community; all reporting percentages over 85%.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
