What Bold Hope Inc does
Mission
Bold hope exists to combat spiritual, economical, and familial poverty by providing hope to some of the world's most vulnerable people. Through community engagement, sustainability, and kingdom preparation we strive to resolve all forms of poverty and make a lasting impact on those we serve. We seek to serve not only individuals and families, but whole communities. Our purpose is to tackle each physical need that presents itself, all while sharing the love of christ.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Mission trips -in fiscal year 2025, bold hope took 712 trip participants on 60 mission trips to 3 countries to support the good work that our partners faithfully carry out year-round. Our teams served in various ways in impoverished communities by doing things like health assessments for all of the children in our family development program, empowerment initiatives such as teacher technology training and bike repair, and continuing work on partners' schools and churches. Additionally, school programs, home visits,community outreach, and children's ministry were mainstays in trip programming.
$1,206,304 spent$1,507,684 earned by the program54% of program spendingFamily development program - we have transitioned from a child development program to a family development program. This transition to a more holistic ministry approach was born out of the belief that behind every child is a family, and behind that family is a community. In a broader view, it becomes clear that brokenness in a community and brokenness in a family affects the most vulnerable piece of any society - the child.our family development program continues to exist to meet daily needs that would otherwise go unmet. The means through which we accomplish this is child sponsorship. In many countries, families are unable to provide for their children financially, which in turn makes them susceptible to separation or exploitation. Our desire is to keep families together by supporting important efforts already being made in vulnerable communities or facilitating our own family development programs in some locations. Our sponsorship programs provide families in high-risk populations with basic necessities including items such as clean water, food, medical attention, shelter, clothing, education, protection, and our family development program continues to exist to meet daily needs…
$1,027,593 spent46% of program spendingEvents/fundraising campaigns-our fundraising efforts in fiscal year 2025 allowed us to continue to expand our reach around the world. The money raised through various events and fundraising campaigns was used to increase the effectiveness of our family development program, including development and educational work in belize. Some of the funds were used to purchase a new bus. Funds were used to build a much needed security wall around the main site and install a more secure gate. We were also able to provide mattresses for the police officers who come to the area specifically to offer protection to arcahaie. In the dominican republic we were able to continue construction on phase 1 of the autovia community center and pavilion. In the united states, we have begun to explore how bold hope can help our neighbors in bucks and montgomery counties with local programming. Additionally, fundraising helped offset our ongoing administrative needs globally.

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 2021 to 2022, from $1.4M to $1.2M (−13%).
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: 2022 2% · 2023 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
94% of BOLD HOPE INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $63k → $142k.
10 of 23 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 66% 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 BOLD HOPE INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 22 of 23 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
BOLD HOPE INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 31% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
68% 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 BOLD HOPE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 58% · 2018 97% · 2019 70% · 2020 89% · 2021 37% · 2022 33% · 2023 21% — 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
36% of BOLD HOPE INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 70% 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
66% of BOLD HOPE 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 $333k that is directly attributable, 53% of it comes from Pennsylvania funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $649k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
