What Jubilee Women's Center does

Mission

Programs

  1. Jubilee Women's Center is a two-year transitional housing program located in the capitol hill neighborhood of seattle, wa. Services include housing, case management, food support, job readiness assistance, technology and life skills support, computer access, community referrals, and free clothing boutique. Founded in 1983 as a passion project for the sisters of st. Joseph of peace, jubilee has served women experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, and substance abuse for over forty years. Jubilee officially separated from the church in the late 1990's and has since operated as a secular organization focused on the empowerment of women in seattle and the surrounding area. In fy24-25, Jubilee Women's Center provided housing with supportive services to 48 women. 61% of women exiting the program in that year moved into permanent housing. Guided by care staff, each jubilee housing participant sets goals for growth and development. We take a holistic approach to address the following life areas: basic needs (food and safety), physical health, trauma/depression/mental health, communication skills, legal issues, benefits, education, employment, financial…

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 12 funders to 26 funders, grant income rose $286k → $420k.

13 of 80 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 43% 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 JUBILEE WOMEN'S CENTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 80 funders by total. 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

JUBILEE WOMEN'S CENTER has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 11% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left

49% 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 JUBILEE WOMEN'S CENTER.

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.

Washington out of state home

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 11 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.
