As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Rethinking power program (movement to end violence against women and girls, vawg): in 2025, the rethinking power program deepened community engagement to transform harmful gender norms and prevent violence against women and girls (vawg). Across 8 communities in lamontay and ben, 936 community members- far exceeding the initial target-completed key phases of sasa together, power to girls, and safe and capable programming. This training strengthened capacities among activists, girls' group mentors, teachers, and local leaders to promote non-violence, shared decision-making, and gender equality. Technical support reached 19 organizations, and two partner groups (mpp and afasda) collaborated with local advocacy committees to advance vawg prevention strategies.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 $716k to $1.6M (+119%).
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: 2020 2% · 2021 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of BEYOND BORDERS INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

How long its funders stay

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
BEYOND BORDERS INC draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Pennsylvania, across 17 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.3M arriving through sponsors registered in 11 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
BEYOND BORDERS INC's funding base is broadening — from 8 funders to 22 as grant income climbed.
