As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
In 2024, Parish Collective continued advancing its mission to connect people to be the Church in their neighborhoods. Through our national learning communities, gatherings, and storytelling initiatives, we helped congregations across the country rediscover their calling to join God's renewing work right where they live.Key Achievements Through the Grounded Faith Initiative, a partnership with Whitworth University's Office of Church Engagement, we supported four active city cohorts--Seattle, Spokane, San Diego, and Chicago--representing 19 congregations, 71 ministry leaders, and 211 young adults. These cohorts gathered for local immersions that combined theological reflection, neighborhood walks, storytelling, and shared practices of discernment to explore how to join God's dreams in their places. Participants launched eight new "Seeds" projects--grassroots, neighborhood-level experiments in belonging, formation, and faithful innovation. Beyond these cohorts, Parish Collective convened national and regional gatherings such as Cultivate San Diego and Inhabit 2024, bringing together hundreds of leaders to celebrate an catalyze neighborhood-rooted ministry and collaborative renewal.…

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 2018 to 2019, from $36k to $701k (+1824%).
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: 2021 50%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of Parish Collective’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. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
