What Healthy Waltham Inc does
Mission
Healthy Waltham's purpose is to improve the health of people who live, work, and learn in Waltham by promoting healthy eating and active living with the goal of decreasing rates of obesity and related chronic diseases. We implement this by initiating and sustaining community collaborations, and by providing educational programs, resources and materials.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Healthy Waltham distributes nutritious and culturally appropriate food to residents of Waltham, MA and surrounding communities. During fiscal year 2025, we served approximately 3,500 unique households, representing nearly 11,000 family members. Over the course of the year, the pantry also recorded approximately 11,000 client visits, with repeat guests counted each time services were received.We provided families with nearly one million pounds of food, valued at approximately $1.7 million dollars. Food was distributed at 24 pantries each year (twice a month) and through local aid groups & Partners. In addition, we served over 100 people per pantry with mobility concerns through our drive thru service. We also served over 100 families a month through our newly adopted delivery program, which began in May 2025.Healthy Waltham also provides physical activity programs for the community: Zumba in the Park is a Healthy Waltham program that runs throughout the summer. It is regularly attended by 50-100 attendants per session, and sessions are run once a week for 8-12 weeks between May and August. Healthy Waltham aims to change the narrative around hunger.

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 2021 to 2022, from $594k to $1.0M (+71%).
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: 2021 4% · 2022 6% · 2023 5% · 2024 1% · 2025 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of Healthy Waltham Inc’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (51% for the typical peer).

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 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 17 funders, grant income rose $65k → $221k.
9 of 43 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 36% 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 Healthy Waltham Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 43 funders by total. 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
Healthy Waltham Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 14% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left
76% 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 Waltham Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 92% · 2018 75% · 2019 100% · 2020 33% · 2021 20% · 2022 18% · 2023 23% — 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.
How long its funders stay
67% of Healthy Waltham Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 56% give in more than one year at all.
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 FY2023, 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
95% of Healthy Waltham Inc's grant income comes from Massachusetts funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $565k 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.
