What Homes for Youth Inc does
Mission
Homes for Youth Inc.'s mission is to provide licensed foster homes serving children referred by the Henderson County Department of Social Services. The organization's primary goal is to maintain foster homes for sibling groups and to support the foster parents overseeing the children.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Provided two homes for up to 10 children at a time overseen by professional foster parents, who were trained, licensed, and paid by partner Crossnore Communities or Children as part of the Bridging Families program. Both Homes for Youth houses provide living spaces, bedrooms, and kitchen/dining facilities for two foster parents and up to 5 children. Homes for Youth provided maintenance and repair coverage for the houses, and supported other needs of the foster parents and children as they arose. Crossnore and Homes for Youth were able to serve a total of 12 children from 4 families in 2025, and 5 of those children were reunified with their families in the 2025 calendar year.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2022 to 2023, from $227k to $757k (+233%).
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.
58% of HOMES FOR YOUTH INC’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 4 funders, grant income rose $500 → $117k.
3 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 71% 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
HOMES FOR YOUTH INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 53% of grant income and the top three 97%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
71% 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 HOMES FOR YOUTH INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 99% · 2022 100% · 2023 86% — 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
71% of HOMES FOR YOUTH 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 $61k that is directly attributable, 92% of it comes from North Carolina funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $145k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
