What Alex House Project Inc does
Mission
The Alex House Project (AHP) is a 501c3 nonprofit, peer-led social service and leadership development organization. We support pregnant and parenting mothers and young fathers living in NYC, particularly Brooklyn where we are based. Our mission is to increase long-term family-sufficiency by providing a safe and nurturing environment for parent education and leadership development with support to access higher education and the workforce.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The Alex House Project (TAHP) is a Brooklyn-based, peer-led 501c3 social service support and leadership development organization for young expecting and parenting mothers, ages 25 and under, who reside in economically depressed, New York City neighborhoods. Our Community We support high-need, underserved homeless youth, LGBTQ youth, young women in new immigrant communities, and parenting youth in foster care throughout the five boroughs of NYC. Our community is directly affected by poverty, homophobia, and racism. We draw from mother-and-child group homes, family foster care, and domestic violence shelters, as well as referrals from community-based organizations, city, and state-funded institutions. Our base in Red Hook, Brooklyn, is home to New Yorks largest NYCHA development, housing over 11,000 people in nearly 3,000 apartments. Ninety percent of the tenants are people of color, as are most AHP participants. Nurturing Parenting: The Alex House Project parenting course increases the ability of young mothers to become family-sufficient. Participants walk away feeling more empowered in their parenting and with a stronger relationship with their co-parents and children. In…

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. 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 $75k to $1.1M (+1420%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2022 5% · 2023 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of Alex House Project Inc’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 13 funders, grant income rose $159k → $665k.
5 of 24 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 16% 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 Alex House Project 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
Alex House Project Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 70%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
48% 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 Alex House Project Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 63% · 2018 64% · 2019 77% · 2020 75% · 2021 40% · 2022 45% · 2023 49% — 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
100% of Alex House Project Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 54% 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
96% of Alex House Project Inc's grant income comes from New York funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $487k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
