What Fiat Classical Academy Inc does
Mission
Our mission is to assist parents in forming young men and women into who God created them to be. This involves the formation of the entire human person including growing in wisdom, virtue and holiness, both body and soul, through a high school education in the Catholic intellectual tradition.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Fiat Classical Academy successfully held our inaugural academic year for 2024-2025. We offer a high school level program serving grades 9 and 10 in our first year, which will be expanding until we are offering all four high school grades 9-12. We had 13 students from Indiana and Ohio. Our mission is to assist parents in forming young men and women into who God created them to be. This involves the formation of the entire human person including growing in wisdom, virtue and holiness, both body and soul. One very unique way we do this is through our Adamello Days, where administrators and faculty lead students on formational days outside of the classroom twice a month in one of the four areas: 1) outdoor adventure 2) works of mercy 3) delighting in the fine arts or 4) craftsmanship. Our overall curriculum for grades 9 and 10 in this first year included courses in these areas: theology, history, literature and composition, Latin, math, science, fine arts, physical education, and logic.

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 $50k to $180k (+261%).
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.
76% of Fiat Classical Academy Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (57% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 87% 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 Fiat Classical Academy Inc’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
Fiat Classical Academy Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 87% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
87% 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 Fiat Classical Academy Inc.
“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
87% of Fiat Classical Academy 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 $3k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Indiana funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $17k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
