What Onevillage Partners does
Mission
See schedule o.working in sierra leone, Onevillage Partners' mission is to enhance collective wellbeing across sierra leone by investing in people and communities through partnerships. We envision a future where sierra leoneans amplify their collective power to lead transformational change in their communities. We partner with rural communities to develop sustainable solutions to their most pressing self-identified challenges. Our programs empower volunteer-leaders to effectively address these challenges and create new opportunities for women's economic empowerment. Using a participatory model and picture-based tools, we train volunteer-leaders to act as change agents, mobilizing their communities to collectively identify long-term goals and collaborate to achieve them. We accomplish this work through programs that build capacity, with a particular focus on inclusive leadership, women and gender equity, social cohesion, and long-term resiliency.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
One village partners works alongside rural communities in sierra leone to advance locally led development that strengthens health, education, livelihoods, and long-term stability. Ovp implements three core programs, beginning with community action (act). This is a community infrastucture project which serves as ovp's foundational program, training volunteer community leaders to mobilize their neighbors and plan and implement community-driven projects such as clean water systems, sanitation facilities, schools, agricultural improvements, and health infrastructure. In 2025, ovp implemented act in 7 communities, including 4 new communities (nyadehun junction, nyagbe-bo, nekabu, and njala mandu) reaching a total population of 4,455 people. These 7 projects focussed on education (2), wash (4) and governance (1).

This economic empowerment initiative strengthens women's economic agency and decision-making power through accessible training in financial literacy, business, public speaking, and agriculture, while engaging men to promote gender equity and shared household decision-making. In 2025, ovp implemented now in 5 communities in kono district, seeing 1000 women successfully graduate from now 1 and now 2 modules.
Leadership, engagement, and development (lead) is the third program which provides training, technical support, and resources that enable communities to identify, shape, and lead their own development priorities. Focussing on community-led sustainability, lead builds on the foundations of act and now by equipping communities with the skills to access and manage funding directly, including training in project design, management, and proposal writing. The program intentionally shifts power to communities, supports collaboration with local institutions, and lays the groundwork for long-term, community-owned development beyond ovp's direct involvement. Ovp support 84 community volunteers through lead in 2025.

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 2024 to 2025, from $591k to $1.4M (+142%).
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.
96% of ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 14 funders to 24 funders, grant income rose $150k → $585k.
9 of 45 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 31% 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 ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 45 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
ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 13% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left
43% 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 ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 23% · 2018 20% · 2019 16% · 2020 25% · 2021 23% · 2022 24% · 2023 26% — 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.
How long its funders stay
60% of ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 69% 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
73% of ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS's grant income comes from Minnesota funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $882k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
Against its field
ONEVILLAGE PARTNERS's funding base is broadening — from 14 funders to 24 as grant income climbed.
