What At Last does
Mission
AT LAST! will become a premier provider of scalable and pragmatic solutions that improve the educational outcomes of under-resourced elementary school-aged students by eliminating the disparity of educational resources and tools available to those children during the home life portion of the school day.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
During its 5th year of providing program services, AT LAST! continues to materially improve the academic performance and outcomes for impoverished elementary school-aged children. AL! also continues to otherwise grow the vital human capital of these children (e.g., their aptitude for learning, cognitive endurance, problem-solving abilities, their conflict resolution skills, their "rest and alertness" hygiene, etc.), while also providing them with life's necessities (grooming, hygienic and other items at the core of their self-esteem). In May 2025, AL! had its third commencement ceremony for 6th graders. During the ceremony, a 3rd consecutive AL! 6th grader received an admission and scholarship to a 4-year college which they-if they continue on the path AL! has equipped them to complete-will be able to put to use upon graduating high school. These are outstanding transformative outcomes that AL! expects to continue producing in the years to come.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $640,953.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 2020 to 2021, from $1.9M to $3.5M (+88%).
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 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
102% of AT LAST’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 10 funders, grant income rose $84k → $289k.
8 of 28 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 70% 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 AT LAST’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
AT LAST leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
78% 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 AT LAST.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 60% · 2019 80% · 2020 81% · 2021 59% · 2022 57% · 2023 69% — 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
50% of AT LAST's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 39% 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
70% of AT LAST'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 $1.4M that is directly attributable, 97% of it comes from Texas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
Against its field
AT LAST runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 1,152 youth development nonprofits its size.
