What Delterra Inc does
Mission
Redesign human systems for the good of people and the planet by developing innovative, scalable solutions.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Rethinking recyclingwe transform the broken system of recycling by fixing the vicious cycle of unreliable demand and poor supply. We address poor supply by developing self-sustaining, community owned recycling programs and unreliable demand by working with corporate players to absorb the supply at a fair price on an ongoing basis.our flagship initiative, rethinking recycling, works with communities and industry to create highly productive, financially attractive systems that rapidly increase the amount of material recycled into productive use, including solutions for plastics and organic waste. On the supply side, we develop community-owned, self-sustaining waste management systems that produce a reliable stream of high-value recyclables while serving everyone in the community. On the demand side, we work with corporate players to build aggregation, traceability, and logistics solutions, and to create local markets to consistently absorb the supply of recycled material at a fair price. We reinforce this approach with government support at the right moments and at multiple levels, to enable and sustain the full-scale adoption of successful models.in indonesia, our vision is to…

The program described on its FY2023 Form 990. Program spending in total: $6,958,285.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 $3.3M to $14M (+324%).
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.
97% of DELTERRA INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $200k → $2.0M.
2 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 56% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $977k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Delterra International Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money DELTERRA INC raised.
From the IRS filings of DELTERRA INC’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
DELTERRA INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 95%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
100% 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 DELTERRA INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 59% — 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.
Where its funders are
56% of DELTERRA INC'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 $1.8M that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Washington, D.C., across 2 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.4M 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.
