Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

- $34,329 spent. In 2023, ReNew KC Neighborhoods worked in a capacity to support the organization's mission to renovate, restore, and renew blighted Kansas City Metro neighborhoods. This included work in a partnership between ReNew KC and another nonprofit organization. The partnership was formed to renovate 1 home and construct 1 new-build home in Kansas City's east side. The property and homes will be owned by the partner organization and not ReNew KC. In 2022, the renovation work for the first home began. ReNew KC Neighborhoods made payments to vendors that assisted with objectives related to this renovation work and objectives related to the work for the future new-build project as well. While the renovation project began in 2023, the new-build project did not start construction in 2023. The Kansas City Metropolitan area is facing a growing homeless population. In January of 2019, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimated a total of 2,381 people were experiencing homelessness on any given day. Furthermore, in some areas of the KC Metro, anywhere from 1 in 4 to 1 out of 10 residential properties are unoccupied. These properties, instead of providing refuge to those who need it most, cost taxpayers millions of dollars in city costs each year and unfortunately are a significant source of vandalism and violent crime. In Kansas City, Missouri's urban core, some homes that are currently inhabited feature environments that are considered largely unlivable. This dynamic is intolerable and affects underprivileged communities across the KC Metro. Too many residents in our city, our neighbors, are being forced to choose food, medicine, and other basic needs over home repairs and mortgage payments. Countless families throughout the Kansas City Metro area are forced to live in residential homes that would otherwise be deemed uninhabitable. Unfortunately, repairs and maintenance are often times just not in the budget, and citizens must choose food, medicine, and other basic human needs instead. In 2023, ReNew KC Neighborhoods engaged in research, due diligence, and activity to position the organization and its community partners to work to further its mission.
