As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
STNA - The Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) training program is approved by the Ohio Department of Health and consists of 100 hours of curriculum, skills practice and clinicals. Preliminary workforce assessments are completed to assure candidates possess the qualities needed for working in health care and also a literacy level of at least 5th grade reading. The program is designed to meet the needs of our focus student population and includes a slower pace, a smaller ratio of nurses to students, extra skills practice and access to remediation. As a result, 99% of our CNA graduates passed the exam required to be listed on the Ohio Nurse Aide Registry. 86% of CNA graduates transitioned into employment within 90 days of graduation into our network of employer partners. A Job Coach served as a resource for the graduates and assisted in addressing workplace behavior issues to prevent job loss. Access to a Resource Navigator provided support in mitigating barriers such as child care, transportation and housing instability that could impede employment retention.

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 2019 to 2020, from $3.0M to $3.6M (+23%).
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 12% · 2018 11% · 2020 20% · 2021 27% · 2022 11% · 2023 18% · 2024 10% · 2025 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 13 funders to 17 funders, grant income rose $393k → $567k.
5 of 42 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 18% 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 Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 42 funders by total. 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
Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 31% 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
52% 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 Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 38% · 2018 29% · 2019 35% · 2020 40% · 2021 31% · 2022 43% · 2023 26% — 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
46% of Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% 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
94% of Mercy Neighborhood Ministries Inc's grant income comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $808k 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.
