What Custom One Charities does
Mission
The purpose of this organization is to establish connections to communities and build generosity. Our goal is to support schools, families, and individuals in need, and partner with and empower respected philanthropic organizations.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Custom One Charities is proud to support sparekey, an organization providing assistance to families with critically ill or seriously injured family members. Bridging is another organization that makes an impact in the lives of local families transitioning to housing stability and provides hope for a new future. Children's cancer research and my very own bed which provides a child with a bed (often times their first), a blanket, pillow, stuffed animal and a book are some of the newest organizations we have partnered with. Toys for tots, twelve days of christmas and numerous community collaborations with local high school. We additionally supported corrie's house - provided renovation services for a group home for youth who are at risk or have experienced sexual exploitation or trafficking. At custom one, giving back is one of our core values and working with each of these partners has truly been a heartwarming experience for our entire staff.

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 2022 to 2023, from $83k to $138k (+66%).
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.
71% of CUSTOM ONE CHARITIES’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income rose $1k → $20k.
4 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 96% 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 CUSTOM ONE CHARITIES’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
CUSTOM ONE CHARITIES leans on a few funders — its largest provides 76% of grant income and the top three 99%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% 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 CUSTOM ONE CHARITIES.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 83% · 2020 100% · 2023 99% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
Where its funders are
96% of CUSTOM ONE CHARITIES'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 $1k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Minnesota funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $26k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
