What Pomona Valley Pride does
Mission
Pomona Valley Pride advances the well-being of LGBTQIA2S+ individuals and allies through affirming support services, educational and arts programming, advocacy, collaborative partnerships, and community-centered initiatives that empower healthier, safer, and more fulfilling lives throughout the Pomona Valley region and surrounding communities.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The 2024-2025 fiscal year marked a pivotal period of growth, innovation, and resilience for Pomona Valley Pride. Through intentional program development and strategic partnerships, we expanded our capacity to uplift, support, and celebrate LGBTQIA+ youth and their families across our region. While our organization experienced growth, the aftermath of the 2024 election brought increasing challenges nationwide, including reductions in funding opportunities and heightened attacks targeting queer and trans communities. Although the direct impact on Pomona Valley Pride during this fiscal year remained minimal, we recognized the urgent need to strengthen support systems and expand programming for our constituents. In response, we launched several new initiatives designed to provide advocacy, healing, connection, and visibility for our community. Programs such as Together Strong, The Reading Circle, Justice Beyond Gender, Radiant Voice, and Hear Me Out were created to amplify community voices, support families, foster belonging, and promote initiatives rooted in dignity, equity, and humanity.Please see below for additional program details.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 2022 to 2023, from $94k to $273k (+191%).
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 69% · 2024 96% · 2025 98%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2022 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $500 → $25k.
1 of 5 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 Pomona Valley Pride’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
Pomona Valley Pride leans on a few funders — its largest provides 76% of grant income and the top three 93%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
93% 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 Pomona Valley Pride.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2022 100% · 2023 58% — 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.
Where its funders are
100% of Pomona Valley Pride's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
