What High Alert Institute Inc does
Mission
We envision a shared understanding that the health of all people, animals, plants, environments, and the planet are interconnected, interdependent systems. This is the core principle of the all hazards, one health, one nature (ahohn) framework. The ahohn framework, an approach that recognizes the deep interconnection between the health of people, animals, plants, and the environment. This holistic perspective has enabled us to develop integrated solutions that address complex global challenges-from climate change and health equity to environmental justice and sustainable innovation. Guided by the ahohn framework, we serve people, families, communities, businesses, and organizations worldwide - especially disabled, disadvantaged, historically marginalized, underserved, and unserved populations - through research, education, technology, and collaboration. The institute's values are embodied in the eight pillars of resilience - preparedness, response, recovery, education, equity, collabor
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

1. Education & publishing branch launched let-cai: developed and launched "the little engine that could ai" (let-cai), an ai-powered tool that combats health misinformation by providing vetted, evidence-based answers in multiple languages, even in low-bandwidth environments. Humanitarian healthcare initiative: forged a key collaboration with the world association for disaster and emergency medicine (wadem) and tech to the rescue to create a digital health ecosystem for vulnerable populations, combining our let-cai with offline-capable medical records and clinical decision support tools. Expanded reach: our publications reached over 1.2 million readers, with over 100 articles featured in 200 outlets. Our position papers on health system sustainability were recognized by the un climate change conference (cop-29), the u.s. Department of health and human services (hhs), and the epa. New look for the next quarter century: the institute's look, logo and online presence completed a major update through the expertise, talent and generosity of designer kirk kempker, website developer d2i technology and the tech to the rescue foundation.

Aquatic animal welfare & mutual aid branch expanded shelter capacity: planning and fundraising for a 65,000+ gallon carbon-negative shelter expansion, featuring advanced aquaponic filtration and solar power to create a state-of-the-art, sustainable environment for rescued animals. Rescued and rehomed: provided shelter and care for nearly 200 animals at our lake wales, florida, facility. The shelter also partnered with bok tower gardens to house the "bok-koi" during renovations of bok's 358,000 gallon aquatic habitat. The institute also helped design the habitat's wall filtration system. Strengthened partnerships: our national mutual aid network facilitated dozens of rescues and rehomings across north america, preventing the release of non-native species into local ecosystems.

Advanced data-driven policy: championed the use of environmental, social, and genomic drivers of health (esdoh+g) data to provide policymakers with objective evidence needed to craft effective and equitable environmental policies.

We are also advancing plans for a rooftop rainwater collection system to reduce well water usage by over 90%.

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 2018 to 2019, from $345 to $82k (+23641%).
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 HIGH ALERT INSTITUTE INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (86% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 7 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $47 → $33.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 HIGH ALERT INSTITUTE INC’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.
Where its funders are
100% of HIGH ALERT INSTITUTE 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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $190 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.
