$169,019 spent$47,282 earned by the program100% of program spendingExposure Project provides career shadowing opportunities that expose youth to various industries and learn more about their careers and personal journeys through a hands-on approach. Participants also have the opportunity to engage in our yearly experiential youth summit where they have the opportunity to engage in various workshops that provide on site assimilation activities. This allows participants to have an understanding of their career interest and obtain knowledge of skills/ experiences needed in preferred careers leading to future employment opportunities. These shadowing opportunities increase participants' employability and development of critical skills that are valued in the workplace. We have been able to partner with over 100 Industry Experts since our inception in 2019 having operated in over 95 Industries.
Exposure Project provides exposure trips where participants have the opportunity to encounter new experiences by attending these trips from community volunteering to immersive experiences allowing them to have increased exposure to environments different from their own. Parent engagement is also critical as these engagement activities facilitate family building. This increases parental awareness of a child's career goals and seeing them choose a career path as well as seeing improvement in youths behavior at home. We have been able to provide 63 exposure trips and parent engagement activities during this past year.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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 2024 to 2025, from $39k to $142k (+264%).
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.
74% of Exposure Project Incorporated’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (83% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $500 → $25k.
2 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 11% 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 Exposure Project Incorporated’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
Exposure Project Incorporated leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 85%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
51% 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 Exposure Project Incorporated.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 100% · 2022 84% · 2023 59% — diversifying over time.
“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
Exposure Project Incorporated draws 55% of its grant income from funders outside North Carolina, across 4 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $31k 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.

Exposure Project Incorporated runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 3,482 youth development nonprofits its size.
