What Future Smiles does
Mission
The mission of Future Smiles is to increase access to oral healthcare in underserved populations.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Provided oral healthcare to individuals that would not otherwise be able to receive these services.
$1,331,053 spent$469,007 earned by the program100% of program spending
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $1,331,053.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 2022 to 2023, from $2.6M to $3.1M (+21%).
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: 2018 3% · 2019 4% · 2020 3% · 2021 27% · 2022 23% · 2023 6% · 2024 2% · 2025 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
59% of FUTURE SMILES’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (51% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 7 funders to 12 funders, grant income rose $194k → $669k.
4 of 27 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% 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 FUTURE SMILES’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
FUTURE SMILES leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 52% · 2018 31% · 2019 43% · 2020 48% · 2021 59% · 2022 43% · 2023 60% — growing more concentrated.
“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
47% of FUTURE SMILES's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% 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
FUTURE SMILES draws 65% of its grant income from funders outside Nevada, across 10 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $472k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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
FUTURE SMILES holds deeper cash reserves than three-quarters of the 4,665 health nonprofits its size.
