$1,087,532 spentof which $6,000 as grants$1,229,667 earned by the program40% of program spendingHealth care literacy and accessfor more than 12 years, apri's organizational focus has been on highlighting health care disparities in the minority communities with particular focus on african americans. One of the most glaring and despairing issues faced by many minorities, in particular african americans, has been race-based disparities in health and healthcare services. Apri seeks to eliminate racial disparities in healthcare by advocating for policies and legislation which support equal access to healthcare services for all americans, and by providing education on access to health insurance. To address these disparities, and to provide a forum to mobilize our communities around healthcare issues, apri features a healthcare symposium during the annual national education conference. This symposium features special forums on solutions for addressing health needs, along with training tracks on obesity, heart disease and diabetes in a format which encourages taking a pro-active approach to improving health concerns. When possible, the conference presents health screening and exhibits covering all aspects of health from: hiv/aids screening & counseling, diabetes, glaucoma, bmi,…
$543,765 spent$614,834 earned by the program20% of program spendingRacial and economic justice programat the onset of the 2020 covid-19 pandemic, apri's focus was to amplify the systemic racism that exposed disparities in communities of color which were already adversely impacted by food deserts, financial deserts, inadequate healthcare services, and crippled transportation systems. Insufficient access to and affordability of broadband/internet services expanded the racial divide, and stifled the ability for our communities to work and learn in a virtual/remote environment. Disproportionate distribution of survival tools and information, such as ppe, food and water, and transportation services to vaccination locations made it impossible for families to receive the care they needed and were left severely devastated by the effects of the pandemic.asa philip randolph and bayard rustin founded the a. Philip randolph institute in 1965 with the mission of fighting for both racial equality and economic justice by employing the american democratic process. They emphasized racial equality and the power of the vote.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $523k to $280k (−46%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 7 funders to 5 funders, grant income fell $79k → $57k.
2 of 23 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 6% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $1.3M from 13 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations). These are real filings, and they are not money A PHILIP RANDOLPH INSTITUTE raised.
From the IRS filings of A PHILIP RANDOLPH INSTITUTE’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
A PHILIP RANDOLPH INSTITUTE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 63% of grant income and the top three 75%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 A PHILIP RANDOLPH INSTITUTE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 33% · 2018 34% · 2019 27% · 2020 77% · 2021 100% · 2022 33% · 2023 35% — broadly stable.
“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.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $165k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
