What Amigos For Christ Inc does
Mission
Our mission is to serve to make christ more visible. Our vision is to light the path to life transformation in nicaragua and beyond. We do this by facilitating leadership, water, health, education, and economic development in rural nicaraguan communities.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Healthcare: (a) preventative care: through modeling the behaviors of the healthiest families in each community, we create a plan for family hygiene that will decrease the instance of preventable illness such as kidney disease, anemia, and respiratory disease; (b) restorative care: working alongside the nicaraguan ministry of health, we support the existing infrastructure to increase access to medical attention and prescribed medicines for the underserved; (c) surgical care: working alongside the nicaraguan ministry of health and local hospitals, we provide surgical services to those who are suffering and have no alternatives. In addition, a state-of-the-art eye surgery hospital was constructed to serve local patients in cataract and retina surgeries.

The ultimate goal of our work and programs is sustained development in rural communities, led by their own community leadership.

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 2018 to 2019, from $3.4M to $4.1M (+22%).
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 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of Amigos For Christ Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 11 funders to 26 funders, grant income rose $421k → $1.8M.
29 of 67 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 83% 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 Amigos For Christ Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 67 funders by total. 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
Amigos For Christ Inc 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
91% 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 Amigos For Christ Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 36% · 2018 26% · 2019 22% · 2020 29% · 2021 30% · 2022 35% · 2023 28% — 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
51% of Amigos For Christ Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% 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
83% of Amigos For Christ 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 $1.8M that is directly attributable, 52% of it comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $8.9M arriving through sponsors registered in 18 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.
