Accordingly, parents play an important role in policy and program decisions. The curriculum taught at the ymca helps children develop moral and ethical behavior, self-esteem, and leadership. Ymca childcare allows parents to remain gainfully employed, knowing that their children are thriving in a safe, supportive environment. Ymca financial assistance policies help ensure that the ymca is a place where children of all economic levels receive the same quality of care in the same setting.

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 2021 to 2022, from $10.0M to $16M (+56%).
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: 2022 43% · 2023 48%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
9% of KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $100k → $318k.
6 of 19 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 3% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $634k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Kearney Area Community Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA raised.
From the IRS filings of KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 18 of 19 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
KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA leans on a few funders — its largest provides 34% of grant income and the top three 82%; half comes from just 2 funders.

Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 79% · 2022 62% · 2023 79% — 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
50% of KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 21% 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
87% of KEARNEY FAMILY YMCA's grant income comes from Nebraska funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59k 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.
