What Helping Hands for the Disabled does
Mission
To provide creative living options, advocate for equal recognition, and ensure a quality of life for adults who are differently-abled.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Housing and 24/7 support for adults with developmental disabilities. We served 24 adults in 2025 in group homes and intensive tenant support (high medical needs) supported living homes. Structure is provided in the form of regular routines and schedules for things such as meals, outings, appointments, and activities. Our residents attend school, hold jobs, and/or regularly participate in community activities. Resident and staff training is also provided, including to ensure current first aid/CPR knowledge and nursing licensure. Our goal is to provide the greatest level of independence and quality of life as is possible for each resident.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2024 to 2025, from $777k to $2.1M (+167%).
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 11% · 2022 0% · 2023 0% · 2024 0% · 2025 18%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
21% of HELPING HANDS FOR THE DISABLED’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income fell $97k → $19k.
5 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 38% 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 HELPING HANDS FOR THE DISABLED’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
HELPING HANDS FOR THE DISABLED leans on a few funders — its largest provides 48% of grant income and the top three 78%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
100% 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 HELPING HANDS FOR THE DISABLED.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 57% · 2022 42% · 2023 68% — 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.
Where its funders are
HELPING HANDS FOR THE DISABLED draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Washington, across 2 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $88k 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.
