What FinAbility does
Mission
To empower survivors of domestic abuse to build financial security and autonomy.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Financial partnerships: in 2024, FinAbility launched a pilot of its 1:1 financial mentoring program, pairing survivors with trauma-informed financial professionals for support on budgeting, credit, debt, and financial goals. All mentees reported increased financial confidence, with a perfect 10/10 net promoter score. In partnership with financial beginnings, we also delivered virtual finance workshops, which earned a 9.5/10 net promoter score and an average reported increase in financial confidence of 9.5/10
$31,777 spent31% of program spendingCommunity partnerships: in 2024, FinAbilitys survivor advisory committee continued to shape strategic priorities, design programs, and lead public education efforts. They launched quarterly webinars attended by over 125 community members and ran advocacy campaigns to raise awareness of financial abuse. FinAbility also supported systems change by joining a national working group led by the center for survivor agency & justice and collaborating with 12+ crisis support organizations across oregon to build more survivor-centered financial services.
$26,100 spent25% of program spendingWebsite product: in 2024, FinAbilitys website and online tools provided lifesaving information to over 24,000 users. Our digital financial toolkit includes 25+ survivor-informed modules and blog posts answering urgent safety and financial questions like how do I safely open a bank account?, how do I heal from financial trauma and abuse?, and how do I separate my finances from my harm doer? The toolkit is now available in five languages, and we completed 30,952 translation requests.
$22,701 spent22% of program spendingOur outreach and communications work in 2024 included our second annual #speakout event, where survivors shared their stories in portlands 13th avenue plaza to an audience of 80+ attendees. The event featured 12 nonprofit partners (up from 2 last year) and earned a net promoter score of 9.6/10, signaling high impact. In addition to #speakout, these funds supported awareness campaigns on domestic and financial abuse, a series of educational lunch-and-learns with financial institutions, and a domestic violence simulation experience to help bank staff and community members better understand the complex barriers survivors face.

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 2023 to 2024, from $72k to $828k (+1055%).
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.
99% of FinAbility’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2022 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $250 → $37k.
5 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 6% 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 FinAbility’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
FinAbility leans on a few funders — its largest provides 57% of grant income and the top three 81%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
29% 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 FinAbility.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2022 100% · 2023 60% — 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
FinAbility draws 64% of its grant income from funders outside Oregon, across 7 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $49k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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
FinAbility runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 2,538 crime & legal nonprofits its size.
