What Amandla Development Inc does
Mission
Improving the education and well-being of South African communities by advising and offering support to successful grassroot organizations that advance opportunities in South Africa. In furtherance of the foregoing, the funded projects have focused on the young people living in the impoverished community of Philippi, Cape Town, South Africa. The programs, which are discussed below, are operated under the umbrella of a South Africa-registered NPO and PBO nonprofit charitable entity.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
I. The Resource Access Programme (RAP) operates in 12 schools in Philippi, serving more than 4000 students each year, and works to build resilience and agency so that young people are aware of the community resources around them and empowered to seek help they need to stay in school and thrive.
$73,610 spent30% of program spendingII. The Community Solutions project works to improve the quality and accessibility of community services in Philippi, working both with service providers and those who access services to create relevant and accessible systems of support. Through cooperation with government and nonprofit service providers, projects include "safe Space," which supports the sexual and reproductive health of more than 4000 youths each year, and a skills development program serving approximately 1000 young women per year.
$110,416 spent45% of program spendingIII. The Shared Measures project collects and analyzes data about the community, young people, and challenges they face. Shared Measures is a system of community accountability to ensure that the entire resource network is all using the same metrics to assess the impact of programs and services on the young people of Philippi. This project benefits about 250 people in 80 community service organizations adopting these measures.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 2024 to 2025, from $9k to $48k (+432%).
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 AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $186 → $4k.
4 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 64% 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 AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT 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
AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 93%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
64% 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 AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2022 85% · 2023 59% — 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.
Where its funders are
64% of AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT 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 $104k that is directly attributable, 96% of it comes from New York funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $186k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.

AMANDLA DEVELOPMENT INC runs a healthier operating margin than half of the 13,062 human services nonprofits its size.
