01What it does

What Our Kids Dba Open Heartland does

Mission

Serving latino immigrant families living in johnson county, iowa, who have escaped violence, extreme poverty and been subjected to lack of access to educational and health resources for their families.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. A total of approximately 450 families actively participated in the services provided by the organization this year. The program services activity category of family support assistance showed total expenditures of 85,303. The sub-category of food and household supplies continues to be the largest expense category of the organization. The organization anticipates developing a membership tracking system to better serve the needs of their clientele. It is believed that member clients could be more directly apprised of the activities and events of the organization with the implementation of such a system.

  2. The organization continues to serve the youth of client families through english language tutoring. Open heartland also sponsors a "folklorico" youth dance group through monetary support with various supplies and equipment necessary to replicate ethnic traditions of the participating families. This exposure to extracurricular activity outside of the classroom helps promote confidence amongst the youth participants as well as involving the children's parents. A total of 7,981 was spent to enhance the children's educational and social status in a different setting from the traditional school environment.

These two items are essential to the children's well being in light of the harsh winter conditions of the midwest. A total of 33,819 was expended for the shoe project, a winter coat project and necessary school supplies/books.

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.

Who funds it, year by year

2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 3 funders, grant income rose $18k → $38k.

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.

75% 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 KIDS DBA OPEN HEARTLAND.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $187k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
