What Guatemala Village Health does
Mission
Guatemala Village Health's mission is to improve health in rural Maya communities in Guatemala by working alongside village leaders and in collaboration with the Ministry of Health by facilitating the delivery of sustainable medical care, heath education and public health improvement projects incorporating best practices to make progress in Sustainable Development Goals from Zero Hunger and Good Health and Well-being to Clean Water & Sanitation and Reduced Inequalities in everything from access to medical care to education. Our permaculture farming work seeks to address climate change while providing sustainable nutrition.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Healthcare: Mobile medical and health clinic based primary care services provided to a population of 10,000 people in 15 rural Mayan Guatemalan villages in the mountains of El Estor, Izabal, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health. Our in-country health team travels daily to provide monthly visits to each village to provide acute care, management of chronic disease, pregnancy and contraceptive care, screening for cervical cancer, and administer a supplement program to 200 babies (6 months to 2 years of age) to prevent baby malnutrition / stunting of growth and child development monitoring. We provide medications and medical supplies to our patients, augmenting the Ministry of Health resources. Volunteer international medical teams consisting of 10 to 15 professionals provide additional clinical care and health screening serving approximately 1400 people per year. We provide ongoing health education to villagers, training for lay health workers, and education for nursing staff. Expenses include salaries for Guatemalan health team, medications, medical supplies, nutritional supplements, health worker training, scholarships, & in-country transportation, food & lodging.

Villagers collaborate by paying a portion of the cost, gathering supplies for construction, and labor for construction of toilets & stoves. Villagers are trained in program implementation and construction. Our Permaculture farming program trains villagers to combat malnutrition through farming with edible food forests and kitchen gardens currently including 30 families. Lay Health workers provide education and ongoing supervision once home improvements are completed. Health promotors are given an incentive payment for their work to support these programs through participant recruitment, training and monitoring of use.

The area is now separated from the larger community building/dormitory and being outfitted as a full service clinic which will be staffed by our Health Team and the Ministry of Health, and supervised by our Medical Director. The full scope of primary care will be provided at least weekly by our staff.

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 2022 to 2023, from $123k to $206k (+67%).
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.
99% of GUATEMALA VILLAGE HEALTH’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $146 → $12k.
4 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 90% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
GUATEMALA VILLAGE HEALTH leans on a few funders — its largest provides 67% of grant income and the top three 93%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
90% 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 GUATEMALA VILLAGE HEALTH.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 99% · 2022 71% · 2023 56% — diversifying over time.
“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.
Where its funders are
90% of GUATEMALA VILLAGE HEALTH'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 $8k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Washington, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $71k 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.
