What Bradbury-Sullivan Lgbt Community Center does
Mission
We strengthen and celebrate the lehigh valley's lgbtq+ communities, which means embracing all identities and intersections. People of all races, cultures, religions, abilities, sizes, and socioeconomic backgrounds are members of our lgbtq+ community, and we seek to create spaces that both acknowledge the multiple marginalization, increased discrimination, and oppression individuals might experience while recognizing the importance and beauty of community members' unique perspectives.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $622k to $1.0M (+67%).
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: 2017 39% · 2018 36% · 2019 35% · 2020 52% · 2021 41% · 2022 55% · 2023 45% · 2024 68%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

From the IRS filings of BRADBURY-SULLIVAN LGBT COMMUNITY CENTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 38 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
BRADBURY-SULLIVAN LGBT COMMUNITY CENTER has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
65% 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 BRADBURY-SULLIVAN LGBT COMMUNITY CENTER.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 37% · 2018 41% · 2019 25% · 2020 20% · 2021 18% · 2022 16% · 2023 30% — 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.

45% of BRADBURY-SULLIVAN LGBT COMMUNITY CENTER's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 55% 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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $376k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
