What Our Dyslexic Children Inc does
Mission
Train and support grassroots parent groups across the country to hold schools accountable for delivering evidence-based reading instruction for all students.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Win 1: we formed upper arlington kids identified with dyslexia, or ua-kid, and secured appropriate educational services for our children with dyslexia in upper arlington, oh. We formed the dyslexia task force and now work shoulder to shoulder with the district to bring evidence-based reading instruction to all our school district's children. Win 2: we built a state-wide grassroots coalition, ohio kids identified with dyslexia (oh- kid), to organize parent groups in ohio to secure educational services for all our children with dyslexia. We have more than 25 ohio parent group members representing over 185,000 students. Oh-kid was instrumental in passing the latest ohio dyslexia legislation and securing the ohio state board of education's approval of the ohio dyslexia guidebook. We have also helped create and mentor statewide parent groups in colorado (co-kid) and illinois (ielc).

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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 2023 to 2024, from $113k to $76k (−33%).
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.
94% of OUR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (65% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income rose $26k → $109k.
5 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 56% 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 OUR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
OUR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 43% of grant income and the top three 82%; 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 OUR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 58% · 2022 95% · 2023 92% — 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.
Where its funders are
56% of OUR DYSLEXIC CHILDREN INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $101k that is directly attributable, 99% of it comes from funders outside Ohio, across 2 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $130k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
