How the money works

From the Form 990 for the calendar year 2025 (Jan 2025 – Dec 2025) — read the filing ↗.

Where the money came from

Total revenue $2.4M

  • Contributions & grants$463K19%
  • Program service revenueFees, tuition and other payments for services$1.8M73%
  • Interest & dividends$27K1%
  • Gains or losses on investments sold−$3K−<1%
  • Other revenueNet income from fundraising events, rent, royalties and miscellaneous income$160K7%

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

How it was spent, by purpose

Total expenses $2.5M

  • Program services$2.2M86%
  • Management & general$339K13%
  • Fundraising$12K<1%
Grants to organizations & individuals
$39K · 2% of expenses
Salaries & officer compensation
$1.4M · 55% 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.
