Programs

  1. In its first year of operations, Bravo Zulu House advanced its mission to provide military veterans with a safe harbor from drugs and alcohol during post-treatment recovery periods through a catholic faith-based housing model. During 2024, the organization purchased land and began construction of a residential facility that will accommodate up to twelve veterans in a structured, spiritual environment. Significant efforts were devoted to fundraising and financing the project, including the successful raising of approximately 580,000 through community and donor support and securing 452,000 in financing to fund construction and startup costs. The facility is expected to be completed in the following year, at which time the organization will begin providing housing and faith-based recovery support to veterans in need.

Who funds it, year by year

Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.

4 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% 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

79% 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 BRAVO ZULU HOUSE.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $25k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
