01What it does

What Mission318 does

Mission

We connect stateside hospitals and organizations to areas that are underserved and need resources. We don't just move in and do surgeries, we resource and train surgeons, nurses, hospital administration, and other stakeholders. Using our tested delivery model, we develop relationships, perform needs assessment through delivering quality medical and surgical care, provision services, support, education and training on medical mission trips, connect with community leaders, local and national health care entities to advocate for forgotten communities, ultimately we set communities up for delivering their own sustainable healthcare.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. We've partnered with a regional hospital in yendi to help provide healthcare to northern ghana. Serving over 250,000 people, the hospital and its staff are stretched thin, usually operating beyond their capacity. Leading a number of surgical trips helps offload the backlogged cases, as well as supply the hospital with much needed medical supplies. We also service sefwi-bewkai in the western region of ghana. The sefwi-bekwai health center, provides medical, maternal, and child clinical services for the entire bibiani ahnwiaso bekwai municipal, about 180,000 people.

  2. We are currently spearheading efforts to upgrade the yendi hospital to better serve northern ghana.

  3. Along with our primary partnership in yendi, we also serve the chida medical clinic in cap-hatien, haiti. This clinic serves over 1000 children and adults in a region that is often overlooked.with similar core values of serving forgotten communities in the name of christ, mission:318 and the pujols family foundation have developed a culturally- sensitive, comprehensive care program for families enrolled in the congracia program in batey aleman, located in the san pedro de marcoris region of the dominican republic.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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

2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 9 funders, grant income rose $15k → $102k.

9 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 80% 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 MISSION318’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

MISSION318 has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 37% 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

97% 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 MISSION318.

“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

40% of MISSION318's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 59% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y

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

80% of MISSION318'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 $88k that is directly attributable, 90% of it comes from Missouri funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $356k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.

These figures are read directly from IRS Form 990 / 990-PF e-file XML: this organization’s own return for FY2025 (financials across 2018–2025), and the filings of 17 funders that report grants to it. “On record” means captured in the filings we have parsed — a funder that does not e-file, or whose grant detail is not itemized, will not appear. Filings run roughly 12–24 months behind. Trends on this page end at FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving; later years are shown and marked, and move no figure.
