Ballard's Early Childhood Program is committed to providing affordable, quality education for children ages 2-5 in an early childhood educational setting. The program is licensed for 48 students. Ballard assists families in closing the gap between school and home by focusing on trauma-informed care and kindergarten readiness. During 2025, our Education Program had 72 children enrolled.

We also sponsor mobile food distribution events twice a month and maintain an onsite food and clothing pantry along with diapers and personal care items. During 2025, 649 household members received financial assistance; 10,733 community members were served at our mobile food distribution; 8,127 family members benefited from pantry services; and 763 children were impacted by our holiday Adopt-A-Family program.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $1.9M to $2.9M (+48%).
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: 2017 0% · 2019 3% · 2020 20% · 2021 19% · 2022 8% · 2023 3% · 2024 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

ELIZABETH BALLARD COMMUNITY CENTER INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 65%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
74% 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 ELIZABETH BALLARD COMMUNITY CENTER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 59% · 2019 46% · 2020 37% · 2021 55% · 2022 31% · 2023 34% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

54% of ELIZABETH BALLARD COMMUNITY CENTER INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 59% 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
93% of ELIZABETH BALLARD COMMUNITY CENTER INC's grant income comes from Kansas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
