Programs
Information and support services began our fourth year at our hope & help day club to provide a safe, loving environment for individuals with memory loss so that their caregivers have much-needed time for themselves. We provide one-on-one support from professionals and experienced volunteers. Every thursday from 10am-2pm, the hope & help day club is in full swing with light breakfast snacks, a full lunch, social activities, crafts, low-key exercise, games, and entertainment, presented with music, hugs and laughter. Each week has a theme and participants have a purpose. Our thursdays bring them hope & help with their journey. We average 25 dementia friends each week, along with 25+ volunteers who provide 1:1 support.
$61,151 spent$2,100 earned by the program79% of program spendingProject lifesaver international the project lifesaver program combines radio technology with rescue teams from the local community, including law enforcement and public safety officials, as a means of expediting the search and rescue for a wandering diagnosed individual. In this program, the client wears a personalized wristband that emits a tracking signal. When a caregiver notifies law enforcement officials that a client is missing, a search and rescue team responds to the wanderer's area and begins searching with the mobile locator tracking system. This process reduces search times from hours and days to only minutes. The project was implemented in gregg, harrison, and marion counties in 2019 and 2020; and upshur and panola counties were added in april and august of 2021. We added rusk county in 2022. Etaa currently manages an average of 25 active clients per month with some becoming inactive due to death or becoming bed bound and new clients being added. Etaa executive director is now a certified pls instructor and has trained wood county sheriff's deputies on basic search and as instructors, meaning they can now train others in wood county to search for wanderers, as well.

$1,456 spent2% of program spendingRespite services the organization funded respite care to provide caregivers with an opportunity for rest and temporary relief from primary caregiving responsibilities. These services were also partially limited by covid-19 restrictions during 2020. Because of the in-facility limitations, etaa launched in-home respite by giving away 20-40 hours of respite to caregivers. Due to being homebound due to covid-19, this was recognized by the etaa board as a much-needed resource. We continued in 2021 and the need grew in 2022 and even more during fye 9/30/25 we contract with 5 agencies; budget has increased from 15,000 to now 20,000; helping 60+ families each budget year; however, budget decreased in fall of 2024 to 5,000. Board of directors awarded additional funding of 3,000 in spring, 2025. Since 2019, we have awarded 48,649.22 in in-home respite grants, 38,133.35 in institutional respite grants, 3,660.75 in out-of-home respite grants totaling 90,444.02 (as of 9/30/25 since 2019).

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 2022 to 2023, from $118k to $76k (−35%).
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: 2024 14% · 2025 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
93% of EAST TEXAS ALZHEIMER'S ALLIANCE’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

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
2018 → 2023: the base narrowed from 4 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $11k → $6k.
2 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 4% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

EAST TEXAS ALZHEIMER'S ALLIANCE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 55% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
59% 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 EAST TEXAS ALZHEIMER'S ALLIANCE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 48% · 2019 100% · 2020 92% · 2021 65% · 2022 77% · 2023 83% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

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

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5k 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.
