What Alliance for Gun Responsibility does
Mission
To advocate for solutions that reduce gun violence.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The Alliance for Gun Responsibility worked to mobilize grassroots and direct lobbying efforts to pass legislation at the state and local levels. In 2024 we passed 7 new gun violence prevention laws and the legislature approved more than $15 million in funding for gun violence prevention programs through the office of firearm safety and violence prevention in washington.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $1,232,530.
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 2022 to 2023, from $370k to $1.2M (+214%).
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: 2021 12% · 2024 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (69% 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.

From the IRS filings of ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY’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
ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY leans on a few funders — its largest provides 69% of grant income and the top three 93%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
93% 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 ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 57% · 2019 93% · 2020 87% · 2021 60% · 2022 24% · 2023 97% — growing more concentrated.
“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
33% of ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 40% 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
79% of ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY'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 $675k that is directly attributable, 93% of it comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.6M 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.
Against its field
ALLIANCE FOR GUN RESPONSIBILITY's revenue grew 51% between 2017 and 2024.
