What Guglielmo's Hope Inc does
Mission
To bring orphaned children from around the world for a life changing, cross cultural experience to enrich their lives with knowledge of the American lifestyle and nourish their hope and sense of being as a part of the world they live in.
As stated on its FY2019 Form 990.
Program
The organization pairs orphaned children from around the world with families that are willing to host them for several weeks at a time during the summer and winter seasons. The organization has provided hosting for over 160 children during its fiscal year. The childrens airfare is provided for, as well as their cost of living and entertainment expenses. The children visit places like the beach, Disneyland, and soccer camp. The hosting families teach the orhpaned children how to live the American lifestyle and experience what family life is like. The organization also provides English lessons to some of the children that it expects to provide hosting for. This enables the children to have a smooth transition in to their hosting families and help them to gain a better understanding of American life while they are visiting. After the children returned to their home countries, it was reported that the children were happier than ever before and showed interest in brightening their futures.
The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.
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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $45k to $57k (+26%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 3 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2020: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $9k → $24.
3 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 35% 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
Guglielmo's Hope Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 65% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
35% 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 Guglielmo's Hope Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 62% · 2018 71% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% — 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.
Where its funders are
Guglielmo's Hope Inc draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside California, across 1 state in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $12k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
