What Freedom Fund Network Inc does
Mission
LGBTQ Freedom Fund pays bail to secure the safety and liberty of individuals in immigration facilities in every U.S. state and pretrial detention in Florida. We also work to build a critical mass against the mass detention of LGBTQ+ people - a tangle of discrimination and poverty fuels disproportionate rates of incarceration.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Immigration Bond Program:With widespread discrimination around the world, U.S. immigration detention is unduly felt by LGBTQ+ people. To address this, LGBTQ Freedom Fund paid bond in 2023 for migrants in more than ten states including Arizona and Texas with a focus on LGBTQ+ people, to secure their safety and freedom from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention. Paying bond preempts victimization in custody and improves case outcomes -- those free are more likely to get counsel and those with representation are more likely to win their immigration cases. After paying bail, for those in need LGBTQ Freedom Fund provided limited case management and medical-legal-social service linkages.

In turn, LGBTQ Freedom Fund paid bail in 2023 to secure the safety and liberty of individuals in pretrial detention in three counties in Florida, with a focus on LGBTQ+ people. Detained, even for a day, an individual is at risk of violence and losing employment, custody of children, and housing. While those with means are released from detention, those in poverty face only injurious choices: languish at risk or accept a guilty plea to get out of jail. After paying bail, for those in need we provided case management and medical-legal-social service linkages.
$33,083 spent15% of program spendingAdvocacy and Education Program:LGBTQ Freedom Fund works as an advocacy and education outfit to mobilize the public and stakeholders to address the disproportionate impact of incarceration on LGBTQ+ individuals. LGBTQ+ people are three times more likely to be jailed, a disparity precipitated by poverty and discrimination in school, employment, policing, family and society at large. In 2023, we addressed these issues in media appearances, as well as meetings with stakeholders and in lectures. This advocacy work also addressed the abuses in carceral facilities of LGBTQ+ people, who are much more likely to be sexually assaulted and held in solitary confinement.

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 2019 to 2020, from $207k to $3.7M (+1666%).
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.
53% of Freedom Fund Network Inc’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (94% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 4 funders, grant income fell $68k → $18k.
11 of 44 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 62% 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 Freedom Fund Network Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 44 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
Freedom Fund Network Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 24% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
93% 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 Freedom Fund Network Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 66% · 2019 65% · 2020 21% · 2021 49% · 2022 55% · 2023 55% — 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
9% of Freedom Fund Network Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 32% 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
62% of Freedom Fund Network 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 $436k that is directly attributable, 98% of it comes from funders outside Florida, across 14 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $708k 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.
