What National Association of Children's Hospitals and Related Institutions Inc does
Mission
To drive informed and actionable progress for children's health and to promote the health and well-being of children and their families through support of children's hospitals and health systems that are committed to excellence in providing health care to children. This is accomplished through education, research, health promotion, and public awareness.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Data analytics: the analytics programs provide insight into meaningful pediatric healthcare solutions by identifying pediatric healthcare opportunities in delivery, quality, and cost. Collection and analysis of data has also supported advocacy for graduate medical education funding, for increasing children's access under medicaid and chip programs and for strengthening reimbursement for children's hospitals. The tools available to members include a suite of data, benchmarking, and quality improvement programs and software to help measure and improve quality and efficiency, inform and support strategies, showcase improvements in children's health care and identify opportunities for further improvement. Tools and analysis back internal and policy decision-making efforts with concrete evidence and allow hospitals to measure and improve quality and efficiency and shape pediatric care nationally.

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 $108M to $129M (+20%).
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: 2017 13% · 2018 3% · 2019 0% · 2020 0% · 2021 0% · 2022 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $73k → $7k.
1 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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: $299k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Seattle Children's Hospital). These are real filings, and they are not money NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS AND RELATED INSTITUTIONS INC raised.
From the IRS filings of NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS AND RELATED INSTITUTIONS 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.
How concentrated its funding is
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS AND RELATED INSTITUTIONS INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 35% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
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 NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS AND RELATED INSTITUTIONS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 77% · 2018 92% · 2019 84% · 2020 78% · 2021 80% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
Where its funders are
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS AND RELATED INSTITUTIONS INC draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Washington, D.C., across 6 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $20k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
