What Operation Black Hills Cabin does
Mission
Our purpose is to provide a therapeutic environment to assist qualified combat wounded veterans from any post-september 11, 2001 military operation in their rehabilitation from their traumatic and stressful experiences while serving the interests of our nation, and to provide a constructive opportunity to the disabled veteran to reacquaint and reconnect themselves with their family in a quiet, leisurely environment.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
In 2023, Operation Black Hills Cabin hosted 13 families from across the united states. Each family received one week respite in our three bedroom, two bathroom, fully handicap accessible cabin in custer, sd, at no expense to them.

The program described on its FY2023 Form 990. Program spending in total: $46,510.
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 2021 to 2022, from $509k to $768k (+51%).
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.
58% of OPERATION BLACK HILLS CABIN’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
62% 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 OPERATION BLACK HILLS CABIN.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 83% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 66% · 2022 82% · 2023 83% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
