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 $2.4M

  • Contributions & grants$2.2M92%
  • Program service revenueFees, tuition and other payments for services$168K7%
  • Interest & dividends$33K1%
  • Gains or losses on investments sold−$9K−<1%
  • Other revenueNet income from fundraising events, rent, royalties and miscellaneous income−$8K−<1%

Other revenue is net of a $8K 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 $2.0M

  • Program services$1.7M85%
  • Management & general$151K7%
  • Fundraising$166K8%
Grants to organizations & individuals
$1.2M · 60% of expenses
Salaries & officer compensation
$361K · 18% 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.
