What Codeorg does
Mission
Code.org is an education innovation nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to computer science, and increasing participation by young women and underrepresented groups. Our vision is that every student in every school should have the opportunity to learn computer science (cs) and artificial intelligence (ai). Code.org increases diversity in computer science by reaching students of all backgrounds where they are at their skill-level, in their schools, and in ways that inspire them to keep learning. Our work builds upon decades of effort by countless organizations and individuals who have helped establish, fund and spread computer science education.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Education - code.org's comprehensive approach aims to make computer science and artificial intelligence education a core part of u.s. Education. The code.org professional learning program is designed to prepare k-12 educators to teach computer science and ai using a defined curriculum pathway paired with high-quality professional learning resources that supports teacher and student success. Curriculum at code.org blends traditional and modern formats, merging lesson plans, activities, and assessments, with computational tools, environments, and learning platforms. Code.org provides this curriculum, in-person workshops, and online learning opportunities, and year-round mentorship and support for existing in-service teachers of all backgrounds at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. Code.org's courses are free and easily accessible, available in more than 70 languages, and are used in more than 180 countries (unaudited).

Code.org's public awareness campaign seeks to motivate more students, parents, and members of the general population to learn computer science and to motivate more schools to want to teach it. Code.org uses celebrity endorsement, earned-media, and viral/social approaches to do this. Code.org also creates materials designed to introduce people of all ages to the potential of learning computer science and break stereotypes, encouraging more young women and students from other underrepresented groups to engage. Code.org's most visible marketing activity is the hour of ai campaign. In partnership with hundreds of organizations, code.org has organized a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in over 180 countries and territories with a one-hour tutorial. The hour of ai is designed to expand foundational ai literacy alongside computer science. This grassroots campaign is supported by hundreds of partners and hundreds of thousands of educators worldwide (unaudited).

$2,283,706 spent$133,555 earned by the program8% of program spendingAdvocacy - code.org's advocacy efforts aim to support policies that increase access to k-12 computer science for all students code.org advocates for state-level adoption of a policy framework to support and expand k-12 computer science. In particular, code.org's main policy focus is getting every school to offer at least one computer science course and supporting this through the allocation of state funding for computer science professional development to grow the number of teachers who are prepared to teach computer science courses, and encouraging states to develop or adopt k-12 computer science standards. At the end of 2025, all 50 states have policies to support k-12 computer science education (unaudited) and 40 states allocated over $650 million exclusively for computer science education (unaudited).

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 and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $56M to $68M (+20%).
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: 2020 3% · 2021 5% · 2022 8% · 2023 6% · 2024 5% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of CODEORG’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (23% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 20 funders to 37 funders, grant income rose $4.3M → $15M.
21 of 108 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 61% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $2.8M from 5 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Silicon Valley Community Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money CODEORG raised.
From the IRS filings of CODEORG’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 108 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
CODEORG has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 18% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
62% 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 CODEORG.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 35% · 2018 34% · 2019 37% · 2020 38% · 2021 39% · 2022 31% · 2023 24% — 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
38% of CODEORG's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 44% 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
61% of CODEORG'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 $37M that is directly attributable, 83% of it comes from funders outside Washington, across 24 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
