What Mountain Area Pregnancy Services does
Mission
The mission of Mountain Area Pregnancy Services is to counsel, educate and care for those at risk for, or impacted by, an unplanned pregnancy.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
In 2025 Mountain Area Pregnancy Services (maps), dba, ascend women's center, served 455 distinct clients, with 316 pregnancy tests and 484 ultrasounds performed in the medical clinic. We conducted 11 grief sessions and served 50 distinct clients in our parenting program. 50% of all clients served through our medical program were abortion minded or abortion determined. We kicked off one new medical service in the summer of 2025: sti testing. These tests were conducted for a subset of medical clients who desire to go through with an abortion. Our medical director and clinic director oversaw all pregnancy tests and ultrasounds performed at both the asheville and waynesville offices. In february 2025 we listed our 1710 old haywood road location for sale and went under contract with a buyer entity in november 2025. However, the closing date on the sale of the property was not achieved until march of 2026. In july 2025 we started two off-site parenting programs at pisgah view apartments and at the grant center. Both locations are located within the greater downtown asheville vicinity. In july of 2025 we physically moved both the asheville and waynesville centers to new locations.…

The program described on its FY2025 Form 990. Program spending in total: $625,060.
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 2022 to 2023, from $1.9M to $3.2M (+65%).
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: 2018 0% · 2019 8% · 2021 5% · 2022 5% · 2024 15% · 2025 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 10 funders, grant income rose $13k → $106k.
9 of 19 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.
From the IRS filings of MOUNTAIN AREA PREGNANCY SERVICES’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
MOUNTAIN AREA PREGNANCY SERVICES has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 28% 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 MOUNTAIN AREA PREGNANCY SERVICES.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 80% · 2018 82% · 2019 100% · 2020 38% · 2021 38% · 2022 29% · 2023 24% — 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
80% of MOUNTAIN AREA PREGNANCY SERVICES's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 68% 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
70% of MOUNTAIN AREA PREGNANCY SERVICES'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 $336k that is directly attributable, 90% of it comes from North Carolina funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $771k 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. 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.
