The organization provided daily community and youth gardening at the Tampa Heights Community Garden, hosting at least two community and social events per month at the garden pavilion. The Youth Garden and Art Wellness program also utilized this space. Additionally, THJCA hosted an average of five community events and meetings per month at the Tampa Heights Community meet-up pavilion in the garden. THJCA supported other organizations, including maintaining a community garden in the Highland Pines neighborhood. As a founding member of the 10-year-old Coalition of Community Gardens (COCG)which now includes 70 community gardens across four Tampa Bay countiesTHJCA helps combat the historical 3-year failure rate of local gardens. The coalition supports garden sustainability and education, emphasizes health benefits for youth and families, and ensures food availability in lower-income and food desert communities. The Tampa Heights Community Center, leased for 30 years from the Florida Department of Transportation, serves as the hub for Tampa Heights events and houses the Tampa Heights civic association, hosting all monthly board and general membership meetings. THJCA also maintained its Northsite facility for a small independent school (grades 1-12) and provided office space for the redevelopment company partnering with the Tampa Housing Authority to reconstruct the Robles Park complex into 2,800 mixed-use residential units. While THJCAs services historically targeted residents of this complex, this along with recent high-end developments and displacement over the past ten years have shifted the population. Displaced youth who previously attended 7 local schools in and around Tampa Heights are now scattered across 37 schools throughout Hillsborough County. Consequently, THJCA has expanded its services county-wide to continue providing wrap-around civic engagement and leadership training for youth and families from age 6 through post-high school. Additionally, THJCA also provided in-school and after-school mentoring in two high schools and one elementary school in north west county and in south-east Hillsborough county, as well as taking 90 high-school students to tour 9 colleges and universities. 499583 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true false true true true true false FL X LENA YOUNG 8135383219 2005 N LAMAR AVE Tampa FL 33602 X LENA YOUNG FOUNDER 38.00 0.00 X X X 0 0 0 Natalie Jackson Secretary 38.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Michael Dove Treasurer 38.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Owen Young 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Keith Sedita 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Tennison 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alex Fiol 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Reva Iman 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kevin Lee 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Antonio Hyman 10.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false 432181 432181 DONATIONS 900099 54093 54093 RENTAL 531390 66476 66476 EVENT 900099 24436 24436 145005 0 577186 0 0 145005 169084 126813 42271 25468 19101 6367 888 844 44 14414 10810 3604 62244 31122 31122 1439 1007 432 3340 1670 1670 10332 7749 2583 75319 56489 18830 13463 11444 2019 UTILITIES 6611 4958 1653 PROGRAM 259155 220333 38822 REPAIRS 2829 2405 424 VEHICLE 6451 4838 1613 651037 499583 151454 0 4853 19329 1498815 288649 1382249 1210166 2500 2500 1389602 1231995 30916 35659 86194 86017 1041060 952738 1158170 1074414 X 231432 157581 231432 157581 1389602 1231995 -73851 0 X false true X true false X 336103 296231 458088 308536 510710 1909668 32691 66476 99167 336103 296231 458088 341227 577186 2008835 0 0 0 0 0 0 2008835 336103 296231 458088 341227 577186 2008835 1.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 X 213334 213334 963766 124334 839432 82500 20625 61875 147645 87189 60456 91570 56501 35069 1210166 577186 66476 66476 510710 510710 651037 651037 651037 Lena Young FounderDirector Continue Operations X 100000 86017 false true false 86017 Lena Young Founder/Director 100000 Provided Loan to Organization false Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 BOARD AND FOUNDING DIRECTOR REVIEW AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND 990 TAX RETURN BEFORE FILING OR ISSUANCW Conflict of interest policy compliance Part VI line 12c NO CURRENT POLICY IN PLACE CEO executive director top management comp Part VI line 15a No Compensation to Officer of Key Employees - all Volunteer.
