Mission
Giving hope to individuals and families through spiritual, educational and community based support.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
After school program: a daily program during the school year in which students receive educational assistance via tutors, supervised recreational time, healthy snacks, and a supper meal. The program reaches children ages 5-12 who are at risk due to neglect, parental incarceration, abuse, illness, literacy deficiencies, substance abuse, substandard housing, slow/delayed academic progress in school, and criminal activity. The program serves 30-35 students, k-6th grade who attend nearby schools. This program helps keep children off the streets in a safe environment in which they have healthy learning & recreational activities. Most of the children are unsupervised when not in school & are easily drawn into unhealthy "street activities" by older peers. Volunteers help minimize expense. A key element of our ability to meet children's educational needs is our formal working relationship with st. Ambrose university departments of speech & language, path, psychology, education, social work and nurse's christian fellowship. Our working relationship enables graduates and undergraduates to fulfill sau requirements for internships while providing valuable assistance to hbh staff at no cost.…
$85,584 spent50% of program spendingSummer program: a daily 6 hour summer program for 8 weeks during the summer in which children participate in a variety of educational enhancing activities that include academic instruction, guest speakers, educational field trips, life skills training, crafts and supervised recreation that includes outdoor games, swimming and water parks. Field trips include nature centers, businesses, museums, etc. Many of these activities would not otherwise be available to our students who mainly come from a low socio-economic area of central davenport. We serve 40-60 students during the summer. These students face the same types of neglect as listed above in the after school program. Since many of the students would be left unsupervised in the summer, this program provides a safe environment offering activities they would normally be unable to participate in.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2023 to 2024, from $463k to $753k (+62%).
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: 2025 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of HOPE AT THE BRICK HOUSE INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
84% 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 HOPE AT THE BRICK HOUSE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 60% · 2018 47% · 2019 64% · 2020 56% · 2021 81% · 2022 38% · 2023 55% — 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.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $107k 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.
