The United Methodist City Society (UMCS) is a multifaceted program agency that is the urban social service program partner of United Methodist churches in the New York metropolitan area. The UMCS was founded in 1838 by Methodist Women in New York City for the purpose of organizing charity schools among the poor. The UMCS is a multi- faceted service organization that addresses the educational, spiritual, recreational and social needs of persons of all ages and all faiths by providing operational grants for churches and social service programs in the metro region. UMCS provides administrative and entrepreneurial coaching for pastors and lay leaders that enable churches to respond to the needs of individuals and families in their communities. Programs supported by the UMCS include after-school programs, food pantries, soup kitchens, residential addiction treatment centers, retreat facilities, senior centers and summer camps. 1 0 1175216 977115 UMCS ownes an apartment building located in Manahattan, UMCS provides low income accomadation, rent offered at a below market rate.

The Children's Program continues to serve fewer students due to the organizations admistors of the programs are finding it harder to obtain the right resources. Sites under the Children's Program umbrella receive support for capacity building, best practices for quality program operations, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) enrichment services for student participants, and support with outcome measurement tracking. Most of the students participating in the summer and afterschool programs are from low-income communities where resources are limited and the need for academic assistance is high. 1471096 953872 In the past year, UMCS helped local United Methodist congregations or non-profit organizations meet their needs through grants for programming and capital-building support, to support mission work. Each year, UMCS provides property and liability insurance to four churches and facilities so that they can continue to be a place of community outreach and public worship. These funds are provided by income from our investment portfolio and contributions from individuals and United Methodist Churches.We work with the New York Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church to provide programs and ministries throughout the metropolitan region. 167516 2361 227955 167516 2361 227955 2966424 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 8 0 1 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 45 45 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 NY X The Organization 2128703084 475 Riverside Dr 1922 New York NY 10115 Wayne Moy board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 James Perkins board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John E Carrington board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lance Carlile board member 2.00 X 0 0 0 Lawrence McGaughey board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Leo Curry board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Bishop Thomas Bickerton board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Ellen Kris -Sec board member 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Richard Hayes board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sara Giron-Ortiz board member 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 Wendell Harris board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Cooper board member 2.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Modeste board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Loretta Hottinger board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Marilyn Mendez-Gonzales Board member- Pres 5.00 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Colette Standford board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Denise Pickett board member 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Able board member 2.00 2.00 X 0 0 0 Kil Yi board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rosalie Bonner board member, Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Mickey Correa board member 1.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 Simeon Law board member 2.00 1.00 X 0 0 0 Inkoo Chong board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Joseph Gordon board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 James W harbison board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Judith Mcrae board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lori Miller board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 William Pfohl board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Margaret Schramm Horn Board member- Vice Pres 1.00 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Alpher Sylvester board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Joan Cargill board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rev Young Choi board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rev Doris Dalton board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kene Erike board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Danny Gastelua board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Gill board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Richard Hanse board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Sonia Jermin board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Latasha Kempadoo-Riddle board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Gene Ko board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Youngyeun Lee board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Luisa Martinez board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ryane Montanez board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ingrid Peters board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 David Piscatelli board member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Ellis Chief Financial Officer 25.00 15.00 X 151302 0 36963 Rev Angela M Redman CEO/Executive Director 20.00 20.00 X 184594 0 49407 Shante Thomas Associate Executive Director 25.00 10.00 X 35829 0 33993 371725 0 120363 2 0 1 0 Arabella Intermediate Holdings LLC 1828 L St NW Suite 200 Washington DC 20036 Consulting 101000 1 85423 77692 1421261 9967 1584376 Low Income Housing 531110 973114 973114 Other Program Services 900099 227955 227955 1201069 931819 931819 4379406 2878181 1501225 1501225 1501225 21595 85423 37603 -16008 -16008 Development fee 900099 122348 0 122348 Other Income 900099 22743 0 22743 Laundry revenue, etc. 900099 4001 4001 149092 5351573 1205070 0 2562127 X 986333 986333 22500 22500 567055 213934 284737 68384 407453 200693 185507 21253 97720 80925 13955 2840 75795 22600 44479 8716 64666 29103 29856 5707 127237 127237 13373 6605 6768 56376 56376 154666 154666 501205 394984 106221 91383 30985 48289 12109 35386 10381 22052 2953 339384 246677 78106 14601 9104 3252 4913 939 17590 2913 13836 841 616 616 271293 212992 48945 9356 246643 225966 20677 Repairs & Maintenance 256946 256946 35441 18019 17422 4378165 2966424 1264042 147699 117745 137763 104309 1264833 115240 159192 124208 108004 110342 121145 8375952 4597392 3783641 3778560 42243699 43202526 625902 505201 47225086 49277224 261965 548297 351200 244173 21513 2882898 1143777 8101 8101 1205253 1450239 4709417 3416100 X 38858632 40583346 3657037 5277778 42515669 45861124 47225086 49277224 973408 2372047 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 223916 900633 353068 108495 1584376 3170488 223916 900633 353068 108495 1584376 3170488 92284 3078204 859314 573599 810162 859681 931819 4034575 21063 247438 6837 382647 22743 680728 7885791 9364164 0.39030 0.31940 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 X 35217268 1274 4200512 3814225 38588829 37966444 500 3315828 3081504 38201268 23389041 21806041 -4876110 2352528 37966444 20371251 2773326 4118392 3873928 23389041 20373866 110197 896734 1009546 20371251 0.90730 0.09270 1 0 126088 126088 7007820 4061378 2946442 1031516 383076 648440 210528 152938 57590 3778560 Ecclesiastical Mortgages Gen.Bd.of Global Ministries 55000 Tenant's Security Deposits 52524 Funds held on behalf of related parties 1048332 lease liability 294383 1450239 Part IV, Line 2b: Through the years the UMCS has been given money to hold and invest for certain churches.
