01What it does

What Global Village Ministries Inc does

Mission

We strive to show God's love to all people by providing much needed medical/dental care to remote areas of Kenya, the US, and El Salvador where care is not available. We are also passionate about bringing awareness and an end to female genital mutilation via education and operating a home for young girls in Kenya who have endured or are at high risk of FGM/early child marriage. Our mission includes several educational sponsorship programs for high risk children.

As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.

Program

We help raise funds and bring about awareness for the Olmalaika Home which is a home for young girls who come to the home under the age of 12 that have either endured or are at high risk of female genital mutilation and child marriage. The home currently has 25 girls living there and 9 girls have transitioned back home while we continue to provide for their education The "little" Ol Malaika is a home where the director stays and guests/volunteers that come to Kenya to work with the girls and provide care in the community.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2021: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $5k → $50k.

4 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 82% 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 VILLAGE MINISTRIES INC’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 VILLAGE MINISTRIES INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 82%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 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 GLOBAL VILLAGE MINISTRIES INC.

“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

43% of GLOBAL VILLAGE MINISTRIES INC's funders are still giving 1 year after their first grant; 50% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y

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 FY2021, 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

82% of GLOBAL VILLAGE MINISTRIES 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 $28k that is directly attributable, 99% of it comes from funders outside Michigan, across 4 states.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $131k 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.
