What Friends of Menucha Foundation does
Mission
To solicit, receive, invest and distribute contributed funds for the benefit of the menucha retreat and conference center.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
In 2024 Friends of Menucha Foundation made impactful grants to menucha retreat & conference center, supporting its mission to enrich lives through hospitality, learning, reflection, and renewal: * ongoing support - the foundation provided essential funding for operational and payroll costs, allowing menucha to maintain a welcoming environment while keeping programming affordable and accessible. * facilities upgrades - through restricted gifts, menucha enhanced its campus with improvements including tractor landscaping equipment, new picnic tables, tree hazard removal, grounds beautification, generator purchases, new mattresses, and a portable sound system. These upgrades create safer, more beautiful, and functional spaces for guests. * business manager position - a grant from the mj murdock charitable trust helped fund the business manager role. This key position strengthens menucha's operations, ensuring continued excellence in program delivery and stewardship of resources.

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.
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 $199k to $0 (−100%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
40% 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 FRIENDS OF MENUCHA FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 97% · 2022 70% · 2023 76% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $83k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
