What Faith in Indiana does
Mission
Faith in Indiana (formerly IndyCAN) is a catalyst for faith communities and marginalized peoples to act collectively for racial and economic justice in Indiana. FaithIN develops civic leaders directly impacted by inequality, awakens the electorate, amplifies the prophetic voice, and forges strategic coalitions across Indiana to build the power of those directly impacted by racial and economic injustice. We work to end gun violence and the mass criminalization of people of color, protect immigrant rights, and promote economic dignity by organizing excluded workers, people of color, youth, returning citizens, and immigrants to drive policy and resource solutions that shape their lives.
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990.
Program
We developed Leaders. During the grant period, Faith in Indiana continued our work of equipping people who usually arent involved in civic life and helping them become powerful public leaders in the public square. We trained 1,612 people who in turn activated 14,563 people at 15 public events and 211 meetings, trainings, and canvassing events. Our supporter list grew to 26,172, and 2,579 people took action online with us. We amplified the prophetic voice. Across our constituencies, we earned 397 stories in the media, capturing the attention of an audience of 3.6 million on television, radio, and print media. We trained 50 organization executive directors, staff, and clergy in Race Class Narrative, a research-backed communications strategy meant to dampen racial polarization and bring people together by naming shared values.We changed the material conditions of peoples lives in the areas of police reform, mental health crisis response, immigrant rights, gun violence, and affordable housing for all.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 2021 to 2022, from $716k to $1.3M (+88%).
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: 2020 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
92% of Faith in Indiana’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 9 funders to 14 funders, grant income rose $275k → $807k.
15 of 39 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 33% 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 Faith in Indiana’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 39 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
Faith in Indiana has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 31% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
77% 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 Faith in Indiana.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 41% · 2018 81% · 2019 69% · 2020 48% · 2021 27% · 2022 22% · 2023 31% — 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.
How long its funders stay
35% of Faith in Indiana's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 54% 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
Faith in Indiana draws 88% of its grant income from funders outside Indiana, across 10 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.0M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
Against its field
Faith in Indiana's funding base is broadening — from 9 funders to 14 as grant income climbed.
