Programs
On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.
During fy25, L'Arche North Carolina expanded its program service accomplishments through the establishment of its first residential program. In january 2025, the organization began operating a licensed 5600f supervised living home in north carolina, providing 24-hour residential support to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This program offers long-term, community-based housing and delivers services including assistance with activities of daily living, medication management, meal preparation, transportation, and support for community participation. The home operates in accordance with person-centered practices and is accredited by the council on quality and leadership (cql). The addition of the residential program represents a significant enhancement of the organization's services, addressing the need for stable, supportive housing for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and further advancing its charitable mission.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
Community programs together events:L'Arche North Carolina offers a series of inclusive community gatherings that bring together people with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/dd), along with families, volunteers, and community partners. These programs respond to the significant social isolation experienced by many individuals with I/dd, who often face limited opportunities for meaningful connection and community participation.(continued on schedule o)community programs together events (continued):through shared meals, arts and crafts, and recreational activities, participants build authentic friendships, experience a sense of belonging, and grow in mutual relationships.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 2023 to 2024, from $468k to $697k (+49%).
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: 2023 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
68% of L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 4 funders, grant income rose $8k → $26k.
5 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 78% 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 L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA’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
L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA leans on a few funders — its largest provides 30% of grant income and the top three 76%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
99% 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 L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 99% · 2022 100% · 2023 95% — 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
25% of L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 44% 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
78% of L'ARCHE NORTH CAROLINA'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 $37k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from North Carolina funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $134k 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.
