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 2024 to 2025, from $4.1M to $4.8M (+16%).
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: 2017 49% · 2019 42% · 2020 17%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
71% of HOUSTON ACHIEVEMENT PLACE’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (51% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 18 funders to 24 funders, grant income rose $186k → $347k.

Left out of every figure on this page: $1.4M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Foundation for Houston Achievement Place). These are real filings, and they are not money HOUSTON ACHIEVEMENT PLACE raised.
From the IRS filings of HOUSTON ACHIEVEMENT PLACE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 57 funders by total. Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 9 funders to its left
26% 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 HOUSTON ACHIEVEMENT PLACE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 31% · 2018 16% · 2019 13% · 2020 12% · 2021 12% · 2022 15% · 2023 14% — diversifying over time.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $608k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
