Programs
Afghanistan - Our Afghan efforts include food support for over 30 families, many of them the families of our students in the US (Hard to study when your family is starving). We also provide modest financial support for certain scout families to cover medical costs, private school tuition so as to keep their sons out of madrassas, wood and coal for heating in the winter and other miscellaneous but necessary costs. We also provide a small amount of financial support to those who help us move and shelter young women as they transit through Afghanistan to our Pakistan operations.
$63,468 spent13% of program spendingPakistan - Our mission to support Scout refugees started in Pakistan in late 2022. For 2023 we were supporting up to 60 people, families and principal applicants with P1, P2 or SIV referrals. We rented four large homes, paid numerous Pakistan visa fees to keep everyone legal and paid for all living costs including food, utilities, clothing, etc This operation also included housing and supporting over a dozen of our students from Pakistan while they studied and prepared for their US embassy F1 student visa interview. We also provided the exit fee for each student, as well as plane ticket to the US.
$106,282 spent22% of program spendingUNITED STATE - In 2023 we brought over 13 students to high schools and colleges. We equipped them with a new computer, phone, school supplies, dorm supplies if needed, clothing, spending money so they did not have to rely on their sponsor families for everything, internal plane flights, dental care, mental health counseling as needed, etc. We were entirely volunteer in 2023, so our administrative expenses were minimal.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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 2023 to 2024, from $28k to $101k (+257%).
How it's funded, over time

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
8 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 66% 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 AFGHAN SCOUT RELIEF FUND’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
AFGHAN SCOUT RELIEF FUND has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
71% 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 AFGHAN SCOUT RELIEF FUND.
“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.
Where its funders are
66% of AFGHAN SCOUT RELIEF FUND'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 $95k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside New Mexico, across 4 states.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $181k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
