The redesigned platform now provides significantly improved access to educational resources, detailed information regarding academic and extracurricular activities, and centralized links to important dates, school events, and announcements. The updated website enhances communication, increases transparency, and strengthens family engagement by ensuring timely and organized access to essential school information. This initiative supports the School's educational mission by fostering greater parent involvement and improving accessibility to program-related resources.

The inaugural teams demonstrated strong participation and competitive performance, earning awards during their first season. The addition of Cross Country, along with continued growth in other athletic offerings, provides students with increased opportunities for physical development, teamwork, leadership, and character formation. These expanded athletic programs further the School's commitment to educating the whole student.

The organization over time
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. 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 $2.6M to $3.8M (+45%).
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: 2017 0% · 2018 0% · 2019 0% · 2020 0% · 2021 9% · 2022 8% · 2023 0% · 2024 6% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
12% of LEGACY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (48% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $10k → $564.
3 of 4 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.

How concentrated its funding is
LEGACY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP leans on a few funders — its largest provides 79% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 LEGACY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 99% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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.
Where its funders are
100% of LEGACY CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP'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 $100 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Virginia, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $55k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
