What Dignity in Motion does
Mission
To provide charitable services and goods to support the unhoused community members. The organization embraces diversity and value individuals irrespective of race, color, national orgin, age, diability, religion or sex. Our commitment is to eliminate discrimination, ensuring accessible and inclusive programs where everyone's voice is heard.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Dignity in Motion has reached a significant milestone through our largest and most impactful program, bikes for the unhoused. This initiative has consistently served as a vital lifeline for the homeless members in our community, empowering them with a means of transportation to access essential services, employment opportunities and social connections. Throughout the year, we successfully collected and received generous donations of gently used bikes from community members, local bike shops and partner organizations. Each bike went through repair and rehabilitation process. Also, these bicycles were equipped with secure locks and rechargable front and back lights, ensuring the safety and security of our beneficiaries during their commutes.

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 17% 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 DIGNITY IN MOTION’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
DIGNITY IN MOTION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 83% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder 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 DIGNITY IN MOTION.
“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
100% of DIGNITY IN MOTION's grant income comes from Michigan funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $27k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
