Programs

  1. Reception and Placement Program - The R&P Program is the 90-day initial resettlement period for newly arriving refugees. During this time, Exodus assists refugees begin new lives in the U.S. by assisting them with housing, food, and clothing; enrolling children for school and adults in English classes; taking clients to appointments with medical providers and social service agencies; as well as meeting other basic needs that arise. Exodus provides cash assistance to each refugee case to help with initial resettlement expenses. Exodus also provides staff to help identify community resources, develops training materials, and implement sustainable outreach programs for potential volunteer partners.

A main focus of RSS is employment, and through this program we complete service plans for employable clients, as well as provide job placement, job training, and case management services, among other services designed to help clients gain and maintain employment. RSS also partially funds English classes for clients. RSS contains a variety of set-asides that fund services to older refugees; youth mentoring; certain health services; and intakes and case management for eligible non-R&P clients such as secondary migrants, Cuban and Haitian Entrants, asylees, SIVs, and certain humanitarian parolees.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 8 funders to 25 funders, grant income rose $169k → $1.4M.

14 of 57 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 21% 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 Exodus Refugee Immigration Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 57 funders by total. 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

Exodus Refugee Immigration Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 45% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

70% 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 Exodus Refugee Immigration Inc.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
