What Louisville Youth Group Inc does
Mission
LYG empowers QTBIPoC/LGBTQIA+ youth to grow into healthy and resilient leaders through community connection, life skills education, and social advocacy.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Empowerment Camp: Every fall, LYG youth go on a weekend-long Empowerment Camp at YMCAs Camp Piomingo. This is an opportunity for youth to get outside of their comfort zones in a safe and affirming environment. Guided by staff and mentors, they participate in activities designed to build self-esteem, connect to a supportive community, and identify leadership skills. Group programs: LYG currently offers several regularly scheduled group meetings for LGBTQIA+ youth ages 5-20, including groups for youth ages 5-12, youth 13-17, adults 18-24 and groups specifically for gender diverse youth and youth of the global majority. Pride Prom: LYG actively participates in the many Pride opportunities in the Kentuckiana region. Pride month is an important way for LGBTQIA+ youth to connect with their roots and engage with the local community. Each spring, LYG hosts a Pride Prom as an alternative for youth who may not feel safe or welcome attending their school prom.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $261,032.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2021 to 2022, from $140k to $252k (+79%).
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 39% · 2022 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (99% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 8 funders, grant income rose $50k → $156k.
6 of 22 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 26% 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 LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC’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
LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 36% of grant income and the top three 67%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
40% 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 LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 67% · 2020 53% · 2021 48% · 2022 52% · 2023 64% — 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
22% of LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 41% 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 LOUISVILLE YOUTH GROUP INC's grant income comes from Kentucky funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $218k 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.
