What Northern Colorado Youth for Christ Inc does
Mission
Provide christian counseling to youth.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Youth for christ staff and volunteers are encouraged and trained to live a 3story life: a way of life that guides followers of christ to be good news and then telling stories of the good news. It is a way of seeing how the relationships we have with other people and god can be connected and grown. 3story is not an evangelism tool or method, it is who we want to be and how we want to live. In yfc, 3story is our living operating system. Our hope is that it becomes our dna. We achieve this through our coffee shop and indoor skatepark. We also provided mental health services through our program "rebalance". We served over 2,300 kids in total during the fiscal year.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 2024 to 2025, from $728k to $1.3M (+84%).
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: 2021 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
93% of NORTHERN COLORADO YOUTH FOR CHRIST INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).

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 NORTHERN COLORADO YOUTH FOR CHRIST INC.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $887k 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. 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.
