What Concern Worldwide (Us) Inc does
Mission
Our mission is to help people living in extreme poverty achieve major improvements in their lives that last and spread without ongoing support from concern.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Concern worldwide u.s. Is an independent affiliate of concern worldwide and supports concern's global humanitarian and development work by raising funds, providing technical support, managing programs, and raising awareness in the u.s. Concern has partnered with the poorest and most vulnerable people around the world to do whatever it takes to help them build better lives and futures. We work to create sustainable change and solve problems holistically so that communities can ultimately thrive without our ongoing support. We do this through programming that focuses on emergency response, climate resilience, and health and nutrition. Livelihoods, education, and water and sanitation are also core components of our work. We design our programs hand in hand with communities - with an emphasis on women and children - and are constantly innovating to maximize the impact and sustainability of our programs.

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 $28M to $40M (+42%).
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: 2017 80% · 2018 82% · 2019 83% · 2020 88% · 2021 90% · 2022 81% · 2023 89% · 2024 89%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (96% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 23 funders to 55 funders, grant income rose $1.6M → $7.9M.
21 of 113 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 31% 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 CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 113 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
CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 22% 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 CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 41% · 2018 43% · 2019 36% · 2020 27% · 2021 39% · 2022 21% · 2023 31% — 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
49% of CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC'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
CONCERN WORLDWIDE (US) INC draws 85% of its grant income from funders outside New York, across 20 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $8.3M arriving through sponsors registered in 16 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.
