What Leadership Mission International does
Mission
We develop a new generation of ethical women leaders to drive positive change by providing exceptional academics, leadership training, alumni support, and community development experiences. We educate and train women in Honduras through a two year residential education program that culminates with an accredited tertiary certification in English, leadership, entrepreneurship, and sustainable community development. We support graduates' personal and professional goals in professional mentorship, University scholarships, community development grants, and business startup loans.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The Leadership Center is an education center for 60 underprivileged women each year to train and study English, ethical leadership, entrepreneurship, and community development. Students live and study on campus for two years. The school provides class materials, housing, healthcare, and other basic needs. After completion of studies, an internship, business startup, further education, or community projects, if approved, may be at least partially funded by The Leadership Center. The costs above include all of the costs for housing, academic materials, instruction, teachers, and other operations necessary.

We refurbished a few buildings this year because of roof and pillar decay. This also covers the cost of all utilities including electricity, wifi, our massive water system, and sewage. Also, this includes all vehicles that bring people and resources back and forth to campus.

This includes a coffee farm, passionfruit plantation, massive vegetable gardens, chickens, pigs, cows, and the labor both for growing food, caring for animals, preparing food, and maintaining these systems.

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 2024 to 2025, from $444k to $568k (+28%).
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.
99% of LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $22k → $141k.
6 of 12 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 82% 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 LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL’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
LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 29% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
83% 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 LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 62% · 2019 43% · 2020 44% · 2021 67% · 2022 35% · 2023 42% — 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 LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% 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
82% of LEADERSHIP MISSION INTERNATIONAL'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 $137k that is directly attributable, 73% of it comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $609k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
