What Circle of Friends for American Veterans does
Mission
The Circle of Friends for American Veterans (cofav) creates awareness of the problems facing veterans, while educating the public and congress of the solutions for veterans, especially homeless veterans.
As stated on its FY2019 Form 990.
Program
The Circle of Friends for American Veterans (cofav) creates awareness of the problems facing veterans, while educating the public and congress of the solutions for veterans, especially homeless veterans. By molding public opinion, cofav helps shape public policy. Cofav directed an ongoing earned media campaign to national, regional and local media outlets, to inform the public about the needs and solutions of veterans. News releases were directed to reporters whom staff had determined cover veterans affairs, including those with daily newspapers, wire services, radio stations, major blogs, websites, television stations and other opinion leaders.
The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.
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 2018 to 2019, from $5k to $0 (−100%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 3 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
