01What it does

What New Day does

Mission

New Day's mission is to provide food for hungry arlington students on the weekend. We work directly with arlington independent school district (aisd) school counselors to find the students who are either hungry or who may be food insecure or do not have a consistent stream of nutritious food available to them. Counselors identify these students at their schools and contact New Day for the delivery of weekend food bags on fridays. The bags are discreetly distributed to students by the counselor. New Day volunteers do not have direct contact with aisd students nor their families.

As stated on its FY2026 Form 990.

Program

  1. Weekend food for hungry students: our main focus continues to supply elementary, middle and high school students with weekend food bags for those students that are food insufficient. If a student has a need for weekend food, they contact a school counselor to be added to the list for weekend food. Our program people, all volunteers, are in contact with the counselors who provide the number of students needing food for the weekend. Volunteers prepare the food bags for delivery and place the bags in designated bins for the participating schools. During the fiscal year, there were 35,419 bags of weekend food delivered to counselors. The contents of an average bag costs approximately 4.00. Total for the year was 141,702. A typical weekend food bag may include 8 items made up of the following: microwave pasta (.31); cereal (.33); applesauce(.35); breakfast bars (.29); deli sticks (.39); crackers (.28); vienna sausage (.73); canned pasta (1.32).

Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $3k → $63k.

5 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 69% 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 NEW DAY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 12 of 13 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

NEW DAY leans on a few funders — its largest provides 54% of grant income and the top three 78%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

88% 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 NEW DAY.

“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 NEW DAY's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 46% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y

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

69% of NEW DAY'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 $134k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Texas funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $296k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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 FY2026 (financials across 2019–2026), and the filings of 13 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.
