Program and Field Service - To support and deliver a quality Scouting program throughout our 13 county area with over 480 Scouting Units (Cub Scout Packs, Scouts BSA Troops, Venturing Crews and Explorer Posts) including over 19,600 youth and 6,700 adult volunteers, the Atlanta Area Council employs 28 unit serving executives, 17 program and finance executives and management, 20 program and office support staff, along with Scoutreach program staff. The Atlanta Area Council serves youth in thirteen Metro-Atlanta counties, including Carroll, Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Dekalb, Douglas, Fulton, Gwinnett, Haralson, Newton, Paulding, Pickens, and Rockdale. Scoutreach is a division within the Council with an emphasis on growing the Scouting program in all areas by removing barriers to ensure that all youth have the opportunity to join Scouting. Scoutreach sponsors uniforms, transportation and professional leadership to Scouts and units that otherwise would not be able to participate in the adventures of Scouting. Over 480 Scouts attained the rank of Eagle Scout in 2024.

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 $104M to $84M (−19%).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 22 funders to 37 funders, grant income rose $310k → $1.4M.
18 of 90 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 62% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $4.2M from 13 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Joseph B Whitehead Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money Boy Scouts of America 92 Atlanta Area Council raised.
From the IRS filings of Boy Scouts of America 92 Atlanta Area Council’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 90 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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
76% 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 Boy Scouts of America 92 Atlanta Area Council.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 20% · 2018 27% · 2019 66% · 2020 20% · 2021 23% · 2022 33% · 2023 35% — 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

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.

Where its funders are
62% of Boy Scouts of America 92 Atlanta Area Council'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 $2.6M that is directly attributable, 79% of it comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 12 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.
