What Girls on the Run - Maine does
Mission
To inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Girls on the run maine is a physical activity based positive youth development program which inspires girls in 3rd-8th grade to develop confidence and live a heatlty life style through an interactive after-school life skills program. Over a period of 8-10 weeks, girls participate in a program which encourages positive emotional, social, mental and physical development through running lessons. At the end of the 8-10 week program, the girls participate in a gotr-me 5k run event. This celebratory non-competitive event is the culminating experience of the curriculum. Completeing the 5k gives the girls a tangible understaing of the confidence that comes through accomplishment as well as a framework for setting and achieving life goals. In a typical year, gotr me serves over 1,500 girls in 50+ schools throughout the state of maine and provides over $70,000 in scholarship support.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $0.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2023 to 2024, from $297k to $230k (−23%).
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: 2021 39% · 2022 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
23% of GIRLS ON THE RUN - MAINE’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (57% for the typical peer).

From the IRS filings of GIRLS ON THE RUN - MAINE’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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
64% 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 GIRLS ON THE RUN - MAINE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 88% · 2019 48% · 2020 44% · 2021 59% · 2022 83% · 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.

33% of GIRLS ON THE RUN - MAINE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 36% 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
59% of GIRLS ON THE RUN - MAINE'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 $53k that is directly attributable, 68% of it comes from funders outside Maine, across 8 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $75k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
