HEARTLAND CHARITABLE TRUST
HEARTLAND CHARITABLE TRUST (Iowa) receives grants from 2 organizations whose IRS filings report $70,300 to it, the largest being REBEL FAMILY FOUNDATION ($70,000). 1 of them have funded it in more than one year. HEARTLAND CHARITABLE TRUST administers funds for other donors, so those contributions arrive into funds it holds rather than supporting a program it runs itself.
Hosts funds for others
HEARTLAND CHARITABLE TRUST administers funds on behalf of other donors. The grants recorded as coming in are contributions into those funds, so they count custody rather than support for a programHEARTLAND CHARITABLE TRUST runs itself. This page therefore states the flows and does not draw the comparisons it would draw for an operating charity: concentration, funder retention, grant dependency and the peer field are all left out, because each of them would read a vehicle as if it were a program.

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.
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. 2 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.
