What Compassion Connect Inc does
Mission
Compassion connect helps churches work together with community partners to serve their neighbors as an expression of god's love by providing free medical/dental clinics, community enrichment, and anti-human trafficking without (see scheudle o for continuation) regard to the demographics of the people they serve.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Compassion connect's anti-exploitation work unites the faith community in its attack against local sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Its major initiative is a bridal dress repurposing project called "adorned in grace." dresses, wedding gowns and accessories are donated to adorned in grace bridal shops, which raise awareness and funds for the cause. Volunteers cleanup, repair, and repurpose the dresses, and the net earnings support ending sexual exploitation through prevention and restoration work. The main prevention program funded by these sales is called compassion youth mentoring, and is a mentoring program for vulnerable youth. The anti-exploitation work had about 187 volunteers who spent approximately 2,163 hours in 2025 raising awareness for the prevention of trafficking and support for victims. Approximately, 127 at-risk youth and trafficked victims were served and several adult survivors and youth and are currently in the mentoring relationships.

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 2024 to 2025, from $990k to $1.7M (+67%).
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: 2024 10% · 2025 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
115% of COMPASSION CONNECT INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (51% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 7 funders to 9 funders, grant income rose $99k → $105k.
11 of 31 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 48% 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 COMPASSION CONNECT INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 27 of 31 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
COMPASSION CONNECT INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 20% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders 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 COMPASSION CONNECT INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 40% · 2018 42% · 2019 36% · 2020 42% · 2021 26% · 2022 27% · 2023 34% — 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
56% of COMPASSION CONNECT INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 52% 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
63% of COMPASSION CONNECT INC's grant income comes from Oregon funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $461k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
