01What it does

What Komaza does

Mission

Komaza's mission is to create sustainable economic opportunities for farmers living in africa's semi-arid regions. Working through village-based field staff, we partner with families and help them plant and maintain small-scale, income generating tree farms.

As stated on its FY2021 Form 990-EZ.

Program

Komaza's program provides tool and inputs, training,and maintenance support for some of the world's hardes to serve farmers by supporting the creation of small-scale tree farms in kenya's semi-arid regions. Our program is implemented with local field staff in two planting seasons: the long rains, beginning in march, and the short rains, beginning in september. During 2016 Komaza partnered with almost 2,000 new farmers, planting over 400,000 trees as well as shorter-term crops.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990-EZ.

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.

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.

Who funds it, year by year

Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.

Funder
'21
total
funders
1

1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 KOMAZA’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.

Where its funders are

100% of KOMAZA'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $19k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
