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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income fell $50k → $18k.

5 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 70% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $176k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Wisdom Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money MILWAUKEE INNERCITY CONGREGATIONS ALLIED FOR HOPE INC raised.

From the IRS filings of MILWAUKEE INNERCITY CONGREGATIONS ALLIED FOR HOPE 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.

MILWAUKEE INNERCITY CONGREGATIONS ALLIED FOR HOPE INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 31% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 2 funders.

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 MILWAUKEE INNERCITY CONGREGATIONS ALLIED FOR HOPE INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $162k 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.
