What Global Pediatric Alliance does
Mission
Global Pediatric Alliance's mission is to promote grassroots empowerment and community-based healthcare to reduce maternal and infant mortality, and improve the lives of women and children in poor, rural areas in Latin America.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Training Initiatives: In poor regions with limited access to state health services, Indigenous midwives often provide essential maternal & child healthcare. GPA provides these health workers with training in evidence-based pediatric primary care, prenatal care, birth techniques & management, recognition of risk factors, danger signs, newborn care & a protocol for emergency-care response. In 2025 we worked with more than 650 midwives & health promoters in Mexico & Guatemala and equipped 455 traditional midwives with leadership skills to advocate locally, nationally, and internationally for improved maternal health access. We provided 128 adults the tools to help reduce gender-based violence, and we trained 590 medical staff to provide culturally respectful care to Mayan women. Our programs benefitted more than 350,000 people.
$276,510 spent77% of program spendingCommunity-Designed Health Program: GPA funds well-conceived, sustainable grassroots health projects known to have a significant impact on maternal & child health designed by local communities with little access to quality health services. We partner with community groups in rural areas to achieve long-term impact & sustainability. In 2025, GPA supported six community-driven projects, including working with more than 700 women & children in Guatemala and Mexico in order to reduce severe malnutrition, prevent respiratory diseases and burns in children, and bring essential medical, dental and nutrition care and vaccines to remote villages through mobile clinics and health fairs reaching hundreds of families. The projects are benefitting approximately 10,000 people.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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 2018 to 2019, from $82k to $277k (+236%).
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 9% · 2022 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of Global Pediatric Alliance’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (64% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $162k → $394k.
5 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 5% 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 Global Pediatric Alliance’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
Global Pediatric Alliance leans on a few funders — its largest provides 53% of grant income and the top three 78%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 52% · 2018 57% · 2019 47% · 2020 46% · 2021 46% · 2022 44% · 2023 62% — 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
78% of Global Pediatric Alliance's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 79% 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
Global Pediatric Alliance draws 91% of its grant income from funders outside California, across 7 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $104k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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
Global Pediatric Alliance runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 11,634 arts & culture nonprofits its size.
