Programs
Developing leaders - 10/40 connections provides relevant and practical theological instruction which inpacts the whole person and the whole community. Our ummeed project developed 1,570 leaders through 36 seminars in multiple states of india. In another nation, with 9 teachers and 23 classes,our adult literacy programs helped 180+ people learn to read and write. We hosted 2 conferences in 2 nations with over 200 leaders.our teaching curriculum was translated into 4 languages and is now spreading through networks. For those who want to understand more about how to have a clean heart and not just do good deeds, we are happy to share some good news.while most religions attempt to help people become better people or please god, we have found that jesus christ actually makes it possible. After he lived a perfect life without one wrong word, deed, thought or motive, jesus allowed himself to die on the cross to pay the penalty for the wrong things people do.(cont. Sch o7)

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $1.1M to $2.1M (+92%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
94% of 1040 CONNECTIONS INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 5 funders, grant income fell $95k → $92k.
4 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 63% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of 1040 CONNECTIONS INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
1040 CONNECTIONS INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 42% of grant income and the top three 84%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
70% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund 1040 CONNECTIONS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 98% · 2018 54% · 2019 45% · 2020 37% · 2021 39% · 2022 41% · 2023 45% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
75% of 1040 CONNECTIONS INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 60% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
63% of 1040 CONNECTIONS INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $216k that is directly attributable, 61% of it comes from funders outside Tennessee, across 2 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $372k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Against its field
1040 CONNECTIONS INC holds deeper cash reserves than three-quarters of the 12,278 religion nonprofits its size.
