What Bucyrus Backpack Program LLC does
Mission
It shall be the mission of the corporation to provide food for hungry and underserved children in our local school districts.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The bucyrus backpack program was formed to recognize and promote the overall health, welfare, education, and other social and economic needs of the students of local school districts including bucyrus, wynford, colonel crawford, buckeye central, crestline, fairway preschool, high road academy, goal academy, and st. Joseph school-crestline. The organization helps to eradicate hunger among the students of the bucyrus city school district whose parents are struggling economically. The program provides a backpack filled with meals that will feed the student and/or members of the family over the weekend. The program distributed 15,681 bags during the fiscal year.
$69,979 spent100% of program spending
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $69,979.
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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $70k to $147k (+111%).
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.
96% of BUCYRUS BACKPACK PROGRAM LLC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2022: the base held at 1 funder, grant income rose $9k → $19k.
1 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 67% 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 BUCYRUS BACKPACK PROGRAM LLC’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
BUCYRUS BACKPACK PROGRAM LLC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% 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 BUCYRUS BACKPACK PROGRAM LLC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 86% · 2022 100% — broadly stable.
“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.
Where its funders are
67% of BUCYRUS BACKPACK PROGRAM LLC'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 $39k that is directly attributable, 87% of it comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $77k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
