Programs
Camp hope costa rica is a one-week, overnight summer camp designed for underserved children from san jos, costa rica. Each year, we welcome 100 campers, aged 8 to 14, primarily from slum communities surrounding the capital, many of whom are immigrants from neighboring countries. Our campers are carefully selected by partner organizations, ensuring that those who attend hear a message of hope beyond their circumstances and understand their inherent value and worth. The camp takes place at campamento bautista, located about 45 minutes from the campers' communities. Although close in distance, the experience feels like a world apart. Campers enjoy a range of enriching activities, savor delicious home-cooked meals, and engage in joyful experiences they may have only dreamed of. In this safe and supportive environment, they are encouraged to share their struggles, find solidarity with peers who have faced similar challenges, and begin their healing journeys. Our dedicated local costa rican team continues to support the campers long after the camp ends. Throughout the year, they focus on building relationships, visiting families, addressing critical needs, advocating for the campers,…

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 2019 to 2020, from $171k to $244k (+43%).
How it's funded, over time

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $48k → $68k.
4 of 5 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 HOPE FOR FAMILIES 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.
How concentrated its funding is
HOPE FOR FAMILIES INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 46% of grant income and the top three 100%; 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 HOPE FOR FAMILIES INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 78% · 2018 80% · 2019 67% · 2020 45% · 2021 64% · 2022 60% · 2023 61% — 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
100% of HOPE FOR FAMILIES 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 $1k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Virginia, across 1 state.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $576k 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.
