Financial health

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.

Programs described in its return (3)
- $17,904 spent. Home Remodel and Repair - In 2024 Ezio Community Development Services implemented the Home Remodel program. Through this program we aim to invest in the Manningdale neighborhood by helping homeowners address remodel efforts or maintenance needs to aid with the beautification of the neighborhood. This year we awarded one homeowner a grant to help with exterior improvements.
- $8,153 spent. Homeownership - To address the housing shortage in Joliet Illinois we have an overarching goal to build 1,000 new homes on the east and south sides of Joliet Illinois. In support of this goal the Homeownership Affordable Housing Initiative aims to build or renovate 40 homes on the East Side of Joliet. Our income-based program will provide housing for first-time buyers families with children and elderly individuals or couples looking for their forever home. In 2024 as part of the pre-development phase we continued to maintain the land performed site surveys and engaged with affordable housing community groups to pool expertise and share information.
- $854 spent. Manningdale Development - In 2024 we implemented the Manningdale Development program. The City of Joliet has pockets of divested neighborhoods and we want to transform them into safe and thriving places where children can play and residents are engaged. This year we held a neighborhood clean-up in the Manningdale neighborhood supported by volunteers the East Side Neighborhood Council Joliet Park District and the City of Joliet Tree Advisory Board. Collectively we picked up trash and debris throughout the neighborhood installed a new park bench and planted new flowers and trees.
