What Family Promise of Lawrence Inc does
Mission
To help homeless families with children and those struggling in a housing crisis achieve and maintain permanent housing through prevention, diversion, shelter, and stabilization programs.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Family promise of lawrence (fpl) continues to adjust programs and service offerings as a direct response to the needs presented in our local community. We serve families experiencing a housing crisis through a variety of programs including, prevention, diversion, shelter, and stabilization. Each family served works with a case management team, which includes a case manager, a peer advocate who has lived experience of a housing or homeless situation, as well as with trained volunteers providing additional supports. Each family with their team works through the family's own housing plan. With the case management team, the family enrolled builds their housing plan. The support team then comes alongside each family in programming in order to help the family achieve their own housing plan goals. Wrap around, strength-based case management services are provided for all families and include local partnering agencies as needed for each unique family need. The goal of all programming, no matter where on the spectrum of services that a household enters fpl programs, is to get back into, or maintain housing. Housing is healthcare and during the pandemic, that fact became clearly obvious.…

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.
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 $1.2M to $2.4M (+94%).
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 40% · 2021 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of FAMILY PROMISE OF LAWRENCE INC’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. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 7 funders to 9 funders, grant income rose $166k → $353k.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
80% 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 FAMILY PROMISE OF LAWRENCE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 60% · 2018 75% · 2019 52% · 2020 45% · 2021 35% · 2022 25% · 2023 44% — 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
44% of FAMILY PROMISE OF LAWRENCE INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 46% 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
63% of FAMILY PROMISE OF LAWRENCE INC'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 $1.1M that is directly attributable, 60% of it comes from Kansas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.9M 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.
