Programs
Welcoming refugees: in 2023, we provided services to 1,635 refugees through our refugee services program. The majority of individuals served were afghan refugees, humanitarian parolees, and special immigrant visa holders. In addition, we also served refugees from iraq, the ukraine, and other countries of origin. We provide assistance in securing health care, housing, employment, and other basic living needs during the first 90-day arrival period. We are fortunate to have strong support from volunteers, local faith communities, and donors that help us ensure that adults receive english language development support and employment services, and children are enrolled in school as we welcome them to our community. The intensive case management program serves the most vulnerable refugees who require specialized services to achieve stability and self-sufficiency.

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 2020 to 2021, from $2.9M to $4.6M (+57%).
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: 2017 71% · 2018 71% · 2019 82% · 2020 91% · 2021 73% · 2022 75% · 2023 88% · 2024 95%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
97% of OPENING DOORS INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (60% for the typical peer).

11 of 33 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 1% 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
OPENING DOORS INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 91% of grant income and the top three 95%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder 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 OPENING DOORS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 90% · 2018 91% · 2019 95% · 2020 97% · 2021 87% · 2022 98% · 2023 86% — 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
36% of OPENING DOORS INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 39% 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
OPENING DOORS INC draws 97% of its grant income from funders outside California, across 9 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $273k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
