What For The Nations DC does
Mission
We offer hope and help to refugee, asylumseeking, and immigrant families in the Washington D.C. metro area. We provide educational programs that help families learn English. We provide practical assistance and connections to community resources that can help them thrive. Finally, we proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ as the ultimate hope of healing for the brokenness we all experience.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2023 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.
We launched a Kid's Club that helps elementary-school children improve their reading skills.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
Daytime English Program. We host these programs at two locations in Alexandria and Fairfax, Virginia. These programs served 205 adults and 63 children from August 2023- July 2024. These programs meet three times per week, and include adult English classes and a free early childhood program for children 0-5 years old. These programs prioritize serving women with young children and women who have never had the opportunity for education. We create a welcoming supportive community where students can feel safe sharing their burdens and the needs that they have as they navigate life in a new place. From August 2023- July 2024, we provided practical help 279 times for a variety of services, including job searching, resume writing, and support in making appointments with doctors offices, schools, the DMV, etc. We also connected students with resources in the community which can help them flourish (e.g., library, playgroups, food banks, job fairs, etc.). These programs offer adults the opportunity to hear about a God who loves them, read stories from the Bible, receive prayer, and ask spiritual questions.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 $219k to $317k (+45%).
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: 2023 5% · 2024 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of For The Nations DC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (57% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

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
2020 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income fell $19k → $17k.
9 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 98% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
For The Nations DC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 36% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
100% 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 For The Nations DC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 66% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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
50% of For The Nations DC's funders are still giving 1 year after their first grant; 30% 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
98% of For The Nations DC'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 $6k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Virginia, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $246k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
