What Hellgate Elementary PTA Inc does
Mission
To raise funds for hellgate elementary.
As stated on its FY2020 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The primary purpose and main goal of Hellgate elementary PTA is to raise funds that go back to Hellgate elementary. Our major source of funds is received from various fundraising activities. We have one large fundraiser every fall and a few smaller ones throughout the year. Our large fundraiser is through a company called Step it UP.

Our other smaller fundraisers are through Dominos pizza and Chipotle. We select dates and the company gives 30-50% of the proceeds from the selected dates and times.

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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $48k to $21k (−56%).
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 4 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $500 → $4k.
1 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $342 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.
