What HT Ministries does
Mission
The Harriet Tubman Movement serves victims of sex trafficking and forced prostitution by providing assistance, both materially and advocacy support, between the time a person is being exploited as a victim to a life of restoration and freedom.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.
The Harriet Tubman Movement continues to offer individualized, tailored case management support for human trafficking victim clients who are working toward a life of restoration, and connection to appropriate services regardless of location nationwide. In 2024 the organization became an employer in Ohio and brought on the contracted executive director as an employee and our first Program Manager. We also added a part-time administrative assistant, all housed in our new office space. We began strategic planning to open a short-term emergency home uniquely tailored for women recovered from being trafficked; this would be the second such home in the entire state of Ohio. Efforts increased to bring in more revenue through community engagement and private foundation grant applications. Programming continued to include awareness and education in the community, and over 1800 people heard our message at various events in 2024. We served 41 new clients as well as 29 existing clients. The Program Managers main objective was to lay the foundation to meet the Standards of Service for Human Trafficking Victims in the state of Ohio, and to oversee direct services to clients.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
The Harriet Tubman Movement has grown over several years in offering individualized, tailored case management support for sex trafficking victim clients who are working toward a life of restoration. We have increased the number of undercover operations we have worked on as a Victim Service Providers with law enforcement. HTM became an employer in Ohio in January 2024. Laura Bartchak, who was a Founder and acting Director on a contracted basis, was employed, as well as the first Program Manager to add to the programming component and oversee direct services to clients. Volunteer Advocates actively worked with 41 new clients and 29 existing clients this year, with referrals from the Northeast Ohio Human Trafficking Task Force, the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force, other law enforcement agencies, healthcare staff, shelters, counselors, and the community. Advocates were dispatched to assess the situation and provide for immediate needs such as food, clothing, or connection with medical services. Advocates transported victims to safe shelter and worked to develop rapport and present options for long-term restoration with new clients, as well as continuing to work with…

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 2022 to 2023, from $289k to $952k (+229%).
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.
99% of HT Ministries’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 3 funders, grant income rose $763 → $16k.
5 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 51% 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 HT Ministries’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
HT Ministries leans on a few funders — its largest provides 35% of grant income and the top three 75%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
51% 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 HT Ministries.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 98% · 2021 59% · 2022 62% · 2023 64% — 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.
How long its funders stay
40% of HT Ministries's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 30% give in more than one year at all.
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. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
51% of HT Ministries'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 $108k that is directly attributable, 98% of it comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $115k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
Against its field
HT Ministries runs a healthier operating margin than three-quarters of the 21,648 human services nonprofits its size.
