What Healthy Hoosiers Foundation Inc does
Mission
The healthy hoosiers foundation (hhf) is a 501(c)(3) that was created by the general assembly in 2013 (sea 415). The foundation was approved to solicit and accept private funding, gifts, donations, bequests, devises, and contributions. The foundation provides funding for programs at the indiana department of health (doh) that promotes the health and well-being of hoosiers. The hhf is dedicated to a wide range of health issues, but in particular the hhf concentrates on funding programs that: reduce infant mortality, increase childhood immunizations, reduce obesity, reduce smoking rates.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs

This supports the priorities for the indiana department of health and healthy hoosiers foundation. This is a two-year awarded grant (2024-2026), with a first installment in 2024.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 2019 to 2020, from $1.3M to $112k (−91%).
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: 2023 4% · 2024 88%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of HEALTHY HOOSIERS FOUNDATION INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (83% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
33% 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 HEALTHY HOOSIERS FOUNDATION INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 86% · 2019 91% · 2021 100% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
