What Pine Tree Hospice does
Mission
Pth honors life and offers comfort with dignity to people of any age living with a progressive life-limiting illness. It educates and supports its volunteers and staff to maintain a high standard of care, and responds to care-giver, family and community needs for continued bereavement support.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Providing indirect and direct non-medical care for clients and families which can take place in the home, hospital or nursing home. Providing on call service for patients and their families needing support at the mayo regional hospital. Providing response to traumatic community events. Providing bereavement support for children, adults and families. Pine Tree Hospice receives no state or federal funding, and no payments from insurance companies. In maine, state regulations dictate that a volunteer hospice program is defined as a hospice program that provides all direct patient care at no charge. As such a volunteer hospice and bereavement program we are not allowed to be a fee for service organization. Our financial viability is dependent solely upon the generosity received from grants, fundraising, strong collaborative support and donations of foundations. Pine Tree Hospice, as a volunteer hospice, provides all its direct care through the service of 50 + volunteers. As most agency programmatic costs consist primarily of wages and benefits, Pine Tree Hospice will have an inordinately lower percentage of programmatic costs than is typical. This can portray a misleading high percent…

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $87,899.
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 2021 to 2022, from $412k to $353k (−14%).
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: 2023 6% · 2024 13% · 2025 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 5 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $16k → $65k.
2 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% 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 PINE TREE HOSPICE’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
PINE TREE HOSPICE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 36% of grant income and the top three 80%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 31% · 2019 54% · 2020 64% · 2021 46% · 2022 46% · 2023 45% — diversifying over time.
“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.
How long its funders stay
27% of PINE TREE HOSPICE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 57% 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
59% of PINE TREE HOSPICE's grant income comes from Maine funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $33k 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.
