Program

  1. HOPE TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL: Encouraged by the success of its Education Lab, Erudite Technology Group, Inc. began work in 2000 to develop a full-inclusion model elementary school for children with and without special needs, capitalizing on best practices in education and technology.

The school is called Hope Technology School HTS and has expanded to include programs for children from preschool through high school. Over two decades later, HTS continues to fulfill its purpose of providing first class education to all children, but particularly to children with special needs, with dignity and Acceptance. During the September 1, 2024 - August 31, 2025 school year, HTS served 60 students in Kindergarten through 8th grade, 17 students in the preschool, 5 students in our VocEd program, and 33 students in our Learning Curve high school program.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $5k → $27k.

4 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 97% 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 ERUDITE TECHNOLOGY GROUP’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

ERUDITE TECHNOLOGY GROUP leans on a few funders — its largest provides 64% of grant income and the top three 95%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

97% 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 ERUDITE TECHNOLOGY GROUP.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

Where its funders are

97% of ERUDITE TECHNOLOGY GROUP'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 funders outside California, across 2 states.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $160k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
