Programs
Chelan Valley Hope provides a confidential intake and assessment by highly trained volunteers and staff who know the local resources and supports client households with emergency stipends to assist with rent, utilities, gas, car repairs, bus tickets, non-covered medical/dental care, clothing, and more. Our organization helps clients develop a care plan to achieve or restore solvency, and we connect clients with resources for continued recovery, growth, and long-term success. In 2024 we assisted over 3,000 clients. Since 2015 Chelan Valley Hope has actively joined with other agencies in Chelan and Douglas Counties to form a Community Housing Network with the purpose of providing coordinated access to housing and shelter for residents facing homelessness. Chelan Valley Hope administers Commerce grants through the county Grants. Every year, our clients receive case management services for homelessness or being at-risk or facing homelessness. We assisted over 300 clients who received emergency shelter for an average of 4 nights and received case management support to locate improved stability with transitional or permanent housing.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 $664k to $979k (+47%).
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: 2019 11% · 2020 2% · 2021 0% · 2022 0% · 2023 44% · 2024 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of CHELAN VALLEY HOPE’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $3k → $47k.
8 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 89% 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 CHELAN VALLEY HOPE’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
CHELAN VALLEY HOPE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 32% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
89% 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 CHELAN VALLEY HOPE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 80% · 2019 90% · 2020 73% · 2021 44% · 2022 70% · 2023 40% — 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
44% of CHELAN VALLEY HOPE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 56% 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
89% of CHELAN VALLEY HOPE'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 $37k that is directly attributable, 57% of it comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $290k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
