What Foster Florida Inc does
Mission
To rally the community around families fostering or adopting from the domestic foster care system by providing meals, childcare, and urgent supportensuring they have what they need to keep saying yes to children in need.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Our primary areas of support include: Donation drives, held in collaboration with local partners, are conducted throughout the year to collect essential supplies. This allowed us to support 140 families with gift cards and other holiday items in 2025. The Parents Night Out program, which allows parents time for rest and respite, is a collaboration with local churches who host events providing space, volunteers, meals, and activities for children. The Urgent Needs program provides critical items to help families accept new placements and by covering urgent expenses and providing meal and care packages during times of illness. The Frontline Closet program maintains a supply of essential items such as diapers, wipes, pajamas and other necessities for frontline families in need. The Meal Support program helps families receiving new placements or experiencing difficult circumstances. We partner with churches and individuals who prepare freezer meals for distribution.

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 2020 to 2021, from $53k to $164k (+208%).
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.
101% of Foster Florida Inc’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $111 → $460.
3 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 67% 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 Foster Florida Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 8 of 9 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
Foster Florida Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 82%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
67% 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 Foster Florida Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 97% · 2022 82% · 2023 93% — 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
25% of Foster Florida Inc's funders are still giving 1 year after their first grant; 11% 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
67% of Foster Florida 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 $10k that is directly attributable, 87% of it comes from Florida funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $20k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
