Programs
Community building:monadnock united way (muw) works collaboratively to address our community's needs in three focus areas: children, education and financial stability throughout every community in our region. Muw uses a collective impact model to bring people from across all sectors of the monadnock region and state of new hampshire together to solve these issues in our community: ensuring that children live in safe, nurturing, healthy homes because we have the 3rd highest rate of child abuse and neglect in the state. Ensuring that everyone has the financial resources they need to live healthy, happy and productive lives, because 1 in 4 of us are low income, which is higher than the state average of 1 in 5. And ensuring that everyone in our community receives an education that enables them to achieve their fullest potential because our children score lower than the rest of the state in english and math. These problems are complex and no single organization or individual alone can solve them. By bringing all segments of our community together, we can create long-lasting changes and address the underlying causes of the problems. Muw funds over 30 collectives and individual programs,…

$731,950 spent45% of program spendingImpact monadnock:impact monadnock seeks to improve outcomes for all children in the monadnock region, from birth to age eight, and their families for future academic, career and life success. It was created in response to research indicating that early childhood development is one of the most critical factors determining the future of all citizens of the monadnock region, because what happens to our youngest residents will have a powerful impact on our community's future success and prosperity. Focusing on the educational achievement and welfare of children from birth to age eight creates a strong foundation for their future health, happiness and economic opportunity. And this in turn, leads to more stability and prosperity for the communities where they live. Impact monadnock's master plan is based on a comprehensive analysis of the challenges facing our region. It aligns with the new hampshire strategic plan for early childhood.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $2.8M to $3.6M (+29%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 8 funders to 18 funders, grant income rose $269k → $344k.
15 of 44 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 60% 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 MONADNOCK UNITED WAY INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 44 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
MONADNOCK UNITED WAY INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 23% 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
74% 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 MONADNOCK UNITED WAY INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 39% · 2018 61% · 2019 28% · 2020 16% · 2021 35% · 2022 22% · 2023 20% — 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
44% of MONADNOCK UNITED WAY INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 55% 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
60% of MONADNOCK UNITED WAY INC'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 $1.3M that is directly attributable, 56% of it comes from funders outside New Hampshire, across 11 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.0M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
