What Pilgrim Ministries Inc does
Mission
Pilgrim ministries is a discipleship ministry who specializes in helping men break the addiction of drugs and alcohol through a relationship with the lord jesus christ. We provide the residential and the after care phases of the ministry for the men. Phase I is the 6 month residential phase and phase ii begins the 6 months of the after-care phase. The men can then enter phase iii where they are given more responsibility as far as helping to over see one of the houses and the day to day operation of a household.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
On its FY2023 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
Organization closed down and donated all assets to other 501(c)3 organizations
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
Pilgrim ministries is a faith-based discipleship ministry that provides men with a place of residency to receive instruction and teaching to overcome drug and alcohol addiction. Once the twelve month program is completed the men can choose to remain at the ministry to continue to grow and be discipled in the after care phase of the ministry for an additional twelve months. Pilgrim ministries gives men an option to live in a christian environment and allows them time to put the knowledge they have received from their residential instruction and teaching into everyday practice while starting their new life in christ.

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.
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 $1.2M to $0 (−100%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 6 funders, grant income rose $12k → $35k.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

67% of PILGRIM MINISTRIES INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 75% 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

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $883 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.
