What Guardian Revival Inc does
Mission
Guardian revival is a new york state 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission of reviving and preserving the mental health and well-being of military and first responders - our guardians - and their families. We provide mental health, wellness, and suicide prevention programs to support those who serve, offering an integrative approach across various experiences. The term guardians include a wide range of individuals, including active military, veterans, reserves, national guard, law enforcement, fire and rescue, emergency medical services, dispatchers, corrections, and federal agents. Our programs are built around experiences that strengthen both mental and physical health.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Another summit, our outdoor adventure program, connects guardians with the healing power of nature through hiking, paddling, and backpacking activities. These adventures, led by trained leaders and designed to accommodate all experience levels, help guardians build confidence, reduce anxiety, and foster meaningful connections.

Guardian rise is designed to take our guardians to another level by improving their focus, energy, and well-being. Because when you feel better, you live better. Through wellness workshops, retreats, and resources, we provide the tools for military, veterans, and first responders to recharge, rebuild, and rise. In addition to these programs, guardian revival provides mental health and suicide prevention training to equip guardians and their families with the skills to recognize and respond to mental health challenges. Through education that addresses stigma and empowers community awareness we create a supportive community and environment for individuals at risk. By connecting guardians to these accessible and cost-free programs, we help them build sustainable, empowering routines that enhance their sense of belonging, purpose, and overall well-being.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2020 to 2021, from $21k to $252k (+1087%).
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: 2022 11% · 2023 17% · 2024 6%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
94% of GUARDIAN REVIVAL INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 9 funders, grant income rose $125k → $889k.

Where its funders are
GUARDIAN REVIVAL INC draws 95% of its grant income from funders outside New York, across 8 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $454k 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.
