What Help-Kids-India Inc does
Mission
Help Kids Inida's (HKI) primary purpose is to raise funds in support of the work of HKI's partner, the Betsy Elizabet Trust (BET), located in Porayar, Tamil Nadu, India. BET is an initiative to improve the life of the poor in rural villages, primarily of Dalit families, through the care and education of young children. BET, a nonprofit organization licensed by the government of India, works with HKI under a Memorandum of Understanding. HKI funds three of BET's five preschools; the other two are supported by Asha for Education and the International School of Geneva, Switzerland. 170 children attend the HKI supported schools. Funding covers all operating expenses, including salaries for 27 staff, food, health care, transportation, utilities and maintenance, insurance, uniforms, administration and necessary building projects. HKI also supports a community health center and purchased land for a small farm that provides employment and food for local families, and the preschools.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Provide Education to the Dalit Children -- The preschools supported by HKI opened in 2002, 2002, and 2010 in response to community need. HKI also starting funding a fourth pre-school. The schools select children, 2-5 years old, from families in the greatest need. There is no charge. The schools provide safety, a sound preschool education, dental and health care, full nutrition, and socialization. They receive frequent guests, both Indian and foreign, and coordinate with a local international school for environmental projects. Children who attended the BET preschools are now completing high school at a rate far exceeding their peers and the majority go on to trade school or college. HKI agreed to fund a 4th preschool program for FY 2024 - 2025. The preschool's Swiss based funding organization was focused on raising funding to construct a new school building and needed temporary financial support from HKI.

During the pandemic shutdowns the schools provided free dry rations to children's families and neighbors in need. With HKI funds, BET purchased two acres of land. This community garden provides much needed food at a reduced rate as well as employment since all work is by hand. With school back in session, BET's Sunday Food Program sends food home with children for the weekend as food is scarce in their households.

Weekly clinic visits address those needing advanced care. At school, hygiene, an essential factor in further education, is taught and practiced throughout the day. In addition, one of the preschools has an adjoining health center that serves the whole community. Without ready access to any health care, the health center is used heavily by pregnant women, the elderly, and others with acute and chronic conditions. HKI funds this health center.

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 $63k to $157k (+148%).
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.
100% of HELP-KIDS-INDIA INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $2k → $88k.
4 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 93% 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
HELP-KIDS-INDIA INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 86% of grant income and the top three 96%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
93% 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 HELP-KIDS-INDIA INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 84% · 2020 94% · 2021 82% · 2022 74% · 2023 99% — broadly stable.
“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
93% of HELP-KIDS-INDIA INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $9k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Vermont, across 1 state.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $135k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
