What Daily Work does
Mission
Daily Works mission is to partner with people to find quality work by providing comprehensive employment services and fostering meaningful, supportive relationships. Our vision is that good work is foundational to financial sufficiency (Continued on Schedule O)
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
In 2025, Daily Work partnered with 269 job seekers from 38 countries, providing more than 1,800 individualized employment appointments to help participants obtain quality employment and achieve greater financial stability. Comprehensive services included career counseling, job search assistance, resume and interview preparation, digital literacy and technology access, interpeter services, transportation assistance, practice driving and road test preparation, financial capability education, and referrals for housing, legal, language, and other supportive services. Participants included 78% immigrants, 32% who required interpreter services, and 92% who were living in low-income households, reflecting the increasingly complex barriers facing those seeking employment. Participant feedback demonstrated strong program effectiveness, with 90% reporting they received more help than they expected, 87% saying they felt listened to and respected, (Continued on Sch O)

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 2019 to 2020, from $66k to $149k (+126%).
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 9% · 2021 8% · 2022 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
107% of Daily Work’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 9 funders, grant income rose $24k → $145k.
10 of 22 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 49% 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 Daily Work’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
Daily Work has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 21% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
55% 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 Daily Work.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 41% · 2018 70% · 2019 40% · 2020 47% · 2021 30% · 2022 30% · 2023 27% — 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
73% of Daily Work's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 68% 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
85% of Daily Work's grant income comes from Minnesota funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $418k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
