What Barre Housing Services Inc does
Mission
Barre housing services, inc. Through its city hotel cafe is the meals on wheels program for central vermont. Its mission is to provide nutritious meals, friendly visits and safety checks that enable elderly and disabled individuals living in central vermont to remain in their homes and live nourished lives with independence and dignity.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The city hotel cafe (local meals-on-wheels program of barre housing services, inc.) served 39,973 meals to elders and younger adults with disabilities residing within barre city, barre town, williamstown, washington, orange, and berlin, vermont. The program helps keep persons at risk of being institutionalized in nursing homes, safe in their own homes or apartments. One third of the people served by this program live in poverty, two thirds live alone, over half are women and many are well into their 90's. Most all of our participants are also coping with one or more chronic illness conditions.

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 $119k to $229k (+92%).
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.
88% of BARRE HOUSING SERVICES INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (37% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

2 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder 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 BARRE HOUSING SERVICES INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 78% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 51% — 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
BARRE HOUSING SERVICES INC draws 76% of its grant income from funders outside Vermont, across 2 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $8k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
