What Akonda Ministries Inc does
Mission
Akonda ministries empowers the people of malawi to thrive through faith-driven development and sustainable initiatives that equip individuals to break the cycles of poverty. Rooted in long-term relationships, we listen to local needs and work alongside malawian leaders to create lasting impact. Our work includes career training and business development, rural medical facilities, school support, and strengthening local churches towards self-sufficiency. We also distribute bibles, provide disaster relief and emergency food assistance, and collaborate with our malawian team to host mission groups, medical teams, and supporters who visit malawi to engage in this work. Through these efforts, we share the gospel while fostering hope, dignity, and sustainable progress in the communities we serve.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Community development - we continued to share the gospel while we trained and graduated students from the career training centers, furthered construction at the chipande medical clinic by starting the maternity hospital, provided disaster relief and emergency food assistance, distributed over 4000 bibles, improved school facilities and provided school supplies, supported local churches with their community outreach, provided mission and medical trip opportunities, and worked alongside leaders in malawi to continue with sustainable initiatives for future growth and development.

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 2020 to 2021, from $135k to $33k (−75%).
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.
100% of AKONDA MINISTRIES INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 92% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

AKONDA MINISTRIES INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 92% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
92% 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 AKONDA MINISTRIES INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2023 100% — 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.
Where its funders are
92% of AKONDA MINISTRIES 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 $2k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Kentucky, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $24k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
