How the money works

From the Form 990 for the calendar year 2024 (Jan 2024 – Dec 2024) — read the filing ↗.

Where the money came from

Total revenue $7.5M

  • Contributions & grants$7.2M96%
  • Program service revenueFees, tuition and other payments for services$177K2%
  • Interest & dividends$357K5%
  • Gains or losses on investments sold−$359K−5%
  • Other revenueNet income from fundraising events, rent, royalties and miscellaneous income$128K2%

Other revenue is net of a $5K loss on fundraising events: the events' direct costs exceeded what the Form 990 counts as event revenue. (Gifts made at events are counted under contributions.)

A loss reduces total revenue, so the other shares add up to more than 100%.

How it was spent, by purpose

Total expenses $8.1M

  • Program services$6.2M77%
  • Management & general$938K12%
  • Fundraising$955K12%
Grants to organizations & individuals
$4.7M · 58% of expenses
Salaries & officer compensation
$1.9M · 24% of expenses

The three purposes above add up to total expenses. Grants and pay are a different way of slicing the same spending — they fall within those purposes — so they're listed separately, not added on.

Percentages are shares of the total reported on the Form 990, not of the lines shown. Figures are as filed, rounded for display.
