What One Hundred Miles Inc does
Mission
One Hundred Miles, Inc. is a publicly supported conservation organization that protects Georgia's coast through advocacy, education, and community engagement. We build support for the protection of Georgia's coast through educational programming, media work, and our organization's communication efforts. We are successful because, through our work, people understand the value of coastal Georgia's unique environment and how they can help to protect it.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
One Hundred Miles works with citizens and elected leaders to advocate for the passage and enforcement of laws and policies that protect coastal Georgia's wildlife, landscapes, and communities. In the 2025FY, we prioritized work on protecting the saltmarsh from privatization and the Okefenokee swamp from mining, advocating for superfund site cleanup in Brunswick and against harmful rezoning on Sapelo Island, and fighting the warehouse takeover in Chatham, Effingham, and Bryan Counties.

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 2021 to 2022, from $1.5M to $6.6M (+328%).
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 11% · 2022 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
93% of One Hundred Miles Inc’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 9 funders to 27 funders, grant income rose $376k → $808k.
11 of 53 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 12% 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: $864k from 4 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Communities of Coastal Georgia Foundation Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money One Hundred Miles Inc raised.
From the IRS filings of One Hundred Miles Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 53 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
One Hundred Miles Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 25% 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
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 74% · 2018 46% · 2019 34% · 2020 24% · 2021 35% · 2022 27% · 2023 37% — 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
74% of One Hundred Miles Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 62% 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
64% of One Hundred Miles Inc's grant income comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $716k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
