As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Higher Education - In November 2024, Daya International celebrated the college graduation of 25 Daya scholars! A total of 104 students are currently pursuing further educational learning / degrees in Nepal. 18 additional students were selected for support for this school year. These students receive educational support, life skills and vocational training, career development counseling, and computer training.
$72,095 spent75% of program spendingGirls and Tech Training - The GTT initiative reached 118 girls this past year from grades 8 through 11 at 2 different government schools! The program successfully achieved the goal of empowering young girls in rural Nepal to confidently utilize computer skills. They learned how to use basic operation, skill of keyboard and programming concepts. Daya International also purchased and donated 5 computers to one of these rural schools, to support their continued technological learning. Art therapy sessions were also introduced at the elementary and middle school level, at the same school sites, with 50 students (both boys and girls) participating.
$10,119 spent11% of program spendingVision Trip - Daya International hosted a Vision Trip in Nepal for 6 of its supporters. This trip connected the supporters to some of the students, attend a graduation ceremony and witness the culture and living environments of these people we love. Through this trip, Daya International's hope is for its supporters to learn more about the impact and opportunities that education can bring to the marginalized women and youth in Nepal.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 $58k to $103k (+78%).
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.
98% of DAYA INTERNATIONAL’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base narrowed from 4 funders to 2 funders, grant income fell $29k → $28k.
3 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 94% 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 DAYA INTERNATIONAL’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
DAYA INTERNATIONAL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 48% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
94% 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 DAYA INTERNATIONAL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 49% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — 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
94% of DAYA INTERNATIONAL'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 $5k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Colorado funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $83k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
