What Men as Peacemakers does
Mission
Map is a local, statewide, and national resource for communities looking to develop and implement proven, innovative, community-centered strategies that address gender-based violence. Using map's "we are all connected" (waac) prevention framework, map engages community members across the life span, from youth grade 3 through adults. With community-connectedness at the foundation, waac leverages map's unique combination of restorative justice, violence prevention, and systems change expertise, integrating community wisdom and insight, to identify need and co-create tools, resources, and programming that help build safe, thriving communities.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Primary prevention programming: map engages men, young men, (and others) in the community in the prevention of gender-based violence through the best campus sexual violence prevention program, the don't buy it project (dbip, a trafficking prevention program), and the men and masculine folks network (mmfn). Through community-centered curricula, workshops, and social media campaigns, map creates opportunities for men of all ages to openly connect, identify their gifts, strengths, role, and influence, and become equipped to prevent harm and create safer communities. In 2024, map engaged 3088 college students and 2839 adults.
$456,369 spent47% of program spendingDomestic violence restorative circles: map's restorative programming includes both the domestic violence restorative circles (dvrc), for high level domestic violence offenses, and the best restorative alternative response for students engaged in the campus sexual misconduct process. These programs integrate proven public health prevention strategies and best practices within the fields of transformative and restorative justice to prevent harms from happening again, working not just with individuals who cause harm, but also with their respective communities in order to reduce the risk of recidivism and facilitate healthy reintegration into community. In 2024 map's restorative programming served a total of 62 participants, victims, and family members.

Incorporating primary prevention strategies like environment-shaping and community-connectedness, as well as embedding restorative conflict resolution techniques, map's youth programming equips students with tools and knowledge, helping them to identify ways they can use their own gifts and strengths to influence community-level conditions and create communities free from gender-based violence where everyone can thrive. In 2024, map served 388 students across five area schools.

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 2017 to 2018, from $1.3M to $1.8M (+44%).
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 16% · 2018 19% · 2019 36% · 2020 51% · 2021 45% · 2022 63% · 2023 61% · 2024 65%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of MEN AS PEACEMAKERS’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (99% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 8 funders to 12 funders, grant income rose $169k → $549k.
8 of 24 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 31% 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 MEN AS PEACEMAKERS’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
MEN AS PEACEMAKERS has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 36% 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
49% 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 MEN AS PEACEMAKERS.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 30% · 2018 41% · 2019 48% · 2020 71% · 2021 41% · 2022 55% · 2023 55% — growing more concentrated.
“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
41% of MEN AS PEACEMAKERS's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 71% 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
MEN AS PEACEMAKERS draws 57% of its grant income from funders outside Minnesota, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.0M 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.
