Programs
Small business assistance: as california's nonprofit of the year 2024, lbfsv remained the trusted first stop for local family businesses seeking practical, bilingual guidance. Our technical assistance combined individualized coaching with group learning so entrepreneurs could act quickly and confidently. One-on-one support covered business essentials, writing or refining business plans, and hands-on help with digital presence. Many owners received full brand book support that included logo creation and simple content calendars so they could launch or refresh their identity without guesswork. We continued to connect entrepreneurs to a reliable partner referral network for legal, finance, lending, and permitting needs. Our community profile stayed consistent with 97 percent low to median income, 87 percent women, and the same diversity mix that centers latino and immigrant families. By meeting people in english and spanish and tailoring ta to their exact stage, lbfsv helped family businesses formalize, market, and grow. These results underscore why our work was recognized statewide 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 2023 to 2024, from $334k to $171k (−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: 2020 84% · 2021 20% · 2022 20% · 2023 7% · 2024 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

4 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 55% 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 LATINO BUSINESS FOUNDATION SILICON VALLEY’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
LATINO BUSINESS FOUNDATION SILICON VALLEY has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 24% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
86% 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 LATINO BUSINESS FOUNDATION SILICON VALLEY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 46% · 2021 35% · 2022 25% · 2023 33% — 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
80% of LATINO BUSINESS FOUNDATION SILICON VALLEY's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 50% 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
55% of LATINO BUSINESS FOUNDATION SILICON VALLEY'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 $604k that is directly attributable, 58% of it comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $731k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
