01What it does

What Intermountain Fair Housing Council does

Mission

The Intermountain Fair Housing Council (ifhc) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to ensure open and inclusive housing for all persons without regard to race, color, sex, religion, national origin, familial status, sexual orientation, gender identity, a source of income, or disability.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2025 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

In june 2025, the organization's hud pei grant funding ended. The fhoi grant funding ended july 2025, resulting in a reduction in available financial resources. The organization scaled back program operations and services to align with funding levels. In october 2025 the hud eoi grant funding ended and staff hours were reduced to maintain financial sustainability while continuing to provide essential services.

Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).

  1. Investigate complaints regarding discrimination in housing in violation of the federal fair housing act. Including in-take, counseling, investigation, and mediation. Enforcement of the federal fair housing act through hud settlements or private legal action in court. Services reach 1,000 persons/households. Filing 65 complaints.

02The organization over time

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.

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.

3 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 15% 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 INTERMOUNTAIN FAIR HOUSING COUNCIL’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

INTERMOUNTAIN FAIR HOUSING COUNCIL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 81% of grant income and the top three 95%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

95% 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 INTERMOUNTAIN FAIR HOUSING COUNCIL.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $61k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
