Programs
OPERATION SCHOOL BELL: Through Operation School Bell, new school clothes, shoes, hygiene kits, backpacks, and supplies are distributed to disadvantaged students attending public schools in the Coachella Valley. In 2023-24, the chapter provided new school clothes, shoes, and hygiene supplies to 4,450 disadvantaged students attending 46 schools in three school districts. In 2024-2025 the chapter provided new school clothes, shoes, and hygiene supplies to 4,398 disadvantaged students attending 49 schools in three school districts. Additional students were reached through program expansion including distributing backpacks and school supplies, supplying middle school and high school students with clothing, and hygiene items, as well as providing bedding, warm clothing and hygiene and school supplies to students from homeless situations. Additional clothing and supplies were purchased for inventory, enabling school administrators to distribute items throughout the school year as needs arose including the arrival of refugee and migrant students. Through a partnership with school nurses, 1,500 hygiene kits in 2023-2024 and 1,400 hygiene kits in 2024-2025 were provided to school nurses.…

Financial assistance is provided for use while the student is in high school. Funding can be for a broad range of services or purchases. Including private lessons, classes, and purchase of equipment or supplies. In 2023-24, 65 high school students received assistance with 49 students receiving assistance of $48,000 in 2024-2025. Program participants improve their performing arts skills, develop more confidence, and are better prepared to thrive in the future including more college opportunities.
$40,444 spent9% of program spendingWE CARE FOCUS ON MILITARY FAMILIES: Our Assistance League chapter provides support to military families stationed at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms. Annually, we host a Baby Shower luncheon for expectant mothers, both active-duty military personnel and spouses of active-duty personnel. Carefully selected gifts worth approximately $800 are distributed to each participating mother-to-be. Thirty mothers were honored in April 2025 and twenty-five mothers-to-be were honored in 2024 at this event. The shower is Assistance League's way to thank military families for their service and a way to support mothers-to be who may be far from home during an exciting yet challenging stage of their lives.
$27,821 spent6% of program spendingSENIOR SERVICES PROGRAM: Through the senior services program, the chapter provides companionship, sponsors entertainment, and supplies clothing and incidentals to disadvantaged Coachella Valley nursing home residents. Musicians contracted by the chapter performed for residents at four low-income nursing homes in 2023-2024 with an additional nursing home added in 2024-2025. Chapter volunteers visited nursing homes, providing companionship to residents. Clothing, footwear, lap blankets and holiday gifts were distributed to residents. Games, puzzles, and reading materials were also distributed to residents. Over 600 seniors benefited from the program.
$20,080 spent5% of program spendingTEDDY BEAR PROGRAM: A new stand-alone program was started as an outgrowth of services provided in Operation School Bell, Senior Services and Assault survivor program in 2024-2025. We have received commitments from several community agencies (fire department, police departments, health care agencies).
$13,028 spent3% of program spendingASSAULT SURVIVOR PROGRAM: A new program was created to help survivors of assault and abuse. The chapter collaborated with Partners Against Violence, a nonprofit organization that assists victims of sexual assault and violent crimes, to supply assault survivor kits. One hundred kits, consisting of pants, shirts, undergarments, footwear, a teddy bear, and a note of compassion, were assembled by chapter volunteers for distribution to assault victims as they are discharged from medical facilities. The kits are intended to preserve the survivor?s dignity by providing them with needed items since victim clothing is typically retained by law enforcement personnel for forensic evidence. Kits with a variety of sizes for women, men and children were provided. The chapter also collaborated with the Barbara Sinatra Children?s Center. Clothing and hygiene supplies were provided for distribution to victims of child abuse and neglect.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $516k to $1.1M (+104%).
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: 2018 6% · 2019 5% · 2020 9% · 2021 4% · 2022 3% · 2023 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $13k → $92k.
3 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 11% 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 Assistance League Coachella Valley’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
Assistance League Coachella Valley has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 21% 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
43% 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 Assistance League Coachella Valley.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 57% · 2018 29% · 2019 41% · 2020 48% · 2021 61% · 2022 24% · 2023 17% — 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 Assistance League Coachella Valley's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 71% 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
76% of Assistance League Coachella Valley's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $53k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
