What Oahu Veterans Council does
Mission
The council's mission is to connect veterans and the communities. The Oahu Veterans Council (ovc) is an organization compromised of representatives from all veterans organizations on island of oahu, who meet monthly for mutual benefit. Ovc exists to: advocate for veterans rights and benefits; preserve the memory and pride of those who served in the us armed forces, honor the sacrificies of our veterans, promote and foster understanding and unity amongst veterans, civic organizations and the community at large.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Support of veterans through sponsorship of veteran events and facilitating access to veterans' benefits. Support includes hosting various veteran government agencies at the center to provide front line information to the veteran community and direct access to government agencies at monthly meetings to address and answer questions about veteran issues, benefits, and services.

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. 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 2019 to 2020, from $5.1M to $4.8M (−6%).
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 17% · 2021 35% · 2023 18%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
2% of OAHU VETERANS COUNCIL’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (84% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2022: the base held at 2 funders, grant income fell $12k → $31.
1 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 0% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
OAHU VETERANS COUNCIL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 100%; 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 OAHU VETERANS COUNCIL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 87% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% — growing more concentrated.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $71 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.
