What Koinonia House National Ministries Inc does
Mission
The vision of KHM is to glorify God through the redemption of our neighbors in prison by the gospel of Jesus Christ and their continued discipleship out of prison, thus reducing the recidivism rate. Our mission is to bridge the gap between the Christian inmate and the local church by facilitating the integration of the former inmate into the church, workplace, and society through biblical discipleship.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
COOK COUNTY JAIL (CCJ): In 2024, the CCJ ministry, led by staff and approximately 28 volunteers, conducted four weekly worship services reaching multiple tiers of incarcerated men and women. In partnership with College Church of Wheaton, KHM distributed 2,500 Christmas gift bags to incarcerated individuals and 240 special gift bags to correctional staff. Recognizing the vital role of correctional staff, KHM also hosted four appreciation meals in the divisions we regularly serve and led two prayer outreaches in response to staff crises, offering comfort and spiritual support. Twelve men in Division 6 completed "Malachi Dads," a study showing how to parent while incarcerated. A special highlight was learning that in a moment of tension, several men chose worship over conflict. They sang aloud "Open the Eyes of My Heart," a song introduced by KHM volunteers just days earlier. What could have escalated into violence became a shared act of peace--an echo of the Holy Spirit's quiet work among them.

RTO is a safe and encouraging community of family members of incarcerated individuals, volunteers, former inmates, those anticipating entering a correctional facility, and anyone interested in learning more about KHM. Together we share an evening of fellowship, prayer, testimonies, Bible teaching, and once a month we also share a meal. Average weekly attendance in 2024 was 77. Highlights for 2024 include testimonies from former inmates, a Passover Seder, quarterly School of Prayer teaching, National Day of Prayer observance, and a special evening of worship with the Judson University Choir.

The CEO made 49 visits with 24 men at the DuPage County Jail and several volunteers also made regular visits. Radical Time Out attendees signed Christmas cards for over 100 inmates, and staff responded to over 40 inmate letters. Highlights include conducting two-day Prayer Conferences in four IDOC facilities, a one-day Prayer Conference in Spanish at East Moline Correctional Center, providing communion elements for Dixon Correctional Center, 45 pairs of work boots for the field workers at Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman, and participating in five IDOC Re-Entry Summits.

Expenses cover activities such as helping families of incarcerated individuals, educating the public on the needs of people returning to society from prison, and ministering to donor families. In 2024, KHM staff ministered to 46 individuals/families in formal and informal settings, provided financial assistance to 6 individuals, helped prepare 3 individuals for their incarceration, and provided encouragement and discipleship for 28 formerly-incarcerated individuals. KHM staff also spoke/taught at 20 services/events for 6 organizations, 8 churches, and 2 schools, and participated in 1 podcast. Weekly Bible studies were conducted for 5 women whose lives have been impacted by incarceration and/or interaction with the justice system. KHM staff and volunteers also distributed 1,026 copies of "Radical Redemption" to individuals in prisons and churches as part of our outreach ministry.

$13,194 spentof which $193 as grants4% of program spendingRADICAL PRAYER INITIATIVE: Persistent and powerful prayer is our ministry. We desire for all believers (both incarcerated and not) to come into a deeper and richer relationship with God our Father, as exemplified by His Son Jesus Christ, through prayer that is empowered by the Holy Spirit (Luke 11:1-13). As we grow in understanding of God's radical love for us, we will then grow in radical love for others, including those who are incarcerated, in crisis, and/or their family members. Our board of trustees holds a monthly prayer conference call as well as regularly meeting in groups of two or three to bring ministry-related requests and praises before our Heavenly Father. A group of fathers gathers each Wednesday (in person and via teleconferencing) to pray for their children, and prayer is an integral part of Radical Time Out. In addition, 982 copies of KHM's book "Radical Prayer" were distributed in prisons and churches in 2024.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2020 to 2021, from $557k to $700k (+26%).
How it's funded, over time

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 5 funders, grant income rose $103k → $197k.
8 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 94% 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 KOINONIA HOUSE NATIONAL MINISTRIES INC’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
KOINONIA HOUSE NATIONAL MINISTRIES INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 45% of grant income and the top three 84%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
94% 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 KOINONIA HOUSE NATIONAL MINISTRIES INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 78% · 2018 54% · 2019 61% · 2020 55% · 2021 88% · 2022 51% · 2023 55% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

How long its funders stay
80% of KOINONIA HOUSE NATIONAL MINISTRIES INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% 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
94% of KOINONIA HOUSE NATIONAL MINISTRIES INC'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 $80k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Illinois, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.2M 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.
