Programs
On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.
Upward Program in Huntsville, Alabama.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
EXECUTIVE PROGRAM BIRMINGHAM: For more than 20 years, Momentum has delivered training, resources, and a network for Birmingham's high-level leaders to achieve their goals. More than 550 women have traveled the path of self-discovery, vision casting, action planning and community connection to become the best version of themselves.We know the demands on women leaders are many. Everyone wants your time, talent, and attention, at work and at home, yet you are often unappreciated and under-valued. At the start of our program, it's common to hear women say they are tapped-out, overwhelmed, and frustrated at work and at home.Momentum's process for advancing women leaders is truly transformative. By nurturing both personal and professional growth, honing business skills, and building lifelongrelationships, participants become equipped, confident, and inspired to reach new goals.

Attendees will have the opportunity to network and will leave with tools they need to drive positive change as leaders.
$203,980 spent$214,947 earned by the program19% of program spendingUPWARD - BIRMINGHAM For over 20 years, Momentum has delivered transformational change for women. We guide you through a process of self-discovery, vision casting, action planning and access to a vast network of women leaders. A survey of our last Upward class showed that 40% of participants experienced a promotion or upward mobility while they were still in the program. Many will use the training they received to set an intentional career path, defend their value, set clear boundaries, and build strong relationships.The Upward program year runs from February to October and is comprised of two cohorts of approximately 30 women each: one for early career (3-5 years of experience, usually at the individual contributor level) and one for mid-career (6-15 years of experience, usually at the first-time manager level.) Each class session is half-day, one cohort in the morning and the second cohort in the afternoon. Sessions are hosted by Momentum's partners in the Birmingham metro-area.

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 2023 to 2024, from $536k to $896k (+67%).
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.
60% of Momentum Alumnae Program Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (48% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year

3 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 16% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
Momentum Alumnae Program Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 56% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

“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
50% of Momentum Alumnae Program Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 25% 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
97% of Momentum Alumnae Program Inc's grant income comes from Alabama funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $72k 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. 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.
