What Project Access Now does
Mission
The mission of Project Access Now is to improve the health and well-being of our communities by ensuring access to care, services, and resources for those most in need.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Community assistance - low-income and other vulnerable populations in our community often face extraordinary barriers to accessing resources that sustain health. Thecommunity assistance program (cap) connects individuals in need of resources that help them successfully transition from a hospital or emergency room back into the community following a major medical intervention. Additionally, the team works closely with coordinated care organizations (ccos) to support medicaid members in accessing health-related, non-medical resources available to them.
$17,133,046 spent86% of program spendingOutreach enrollment and access - whole person care goes far beyond simply having health insurance coverage. Our dedicated team of community health workers and donated care specialists empower individuals to access the care they deserve by scheduling appointments, providing prescription medication assistance, arranging donated care for uninsured individuals, ensuring coordination between an individual's social and health service providers, and providing language interpretation services so individuals can seek care in their primary language.
$1,657,131 spent8% of program spendingPayment support - the first step to health care access is ensuring community members have adequate health insurance coverage that fits their needs. By providing essential support and guidance, Project Access Now empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their health insurance coverage and access the care they need. For individuals who make too much to qualify for free coverage through the oregon health plan, but not enough to afford private insurance, panow provided monthly insurance payment support.

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 2022 to 2023, from $3.7M to $6.9M (+85%).
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: 2017 5% · 2018 3% · 2020 1% · 2021 18% · 2022 8% · 2023 3% · 2024 84% · 2025 84%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of Project Access Now’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (7% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 9 funders to 11 funders, grant income rose $3.3M → $5.5M.
5 of 29 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 0% 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 Project Access Now’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
Project Access Now leans on a few funders — its largest provides 61% 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
98% 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 Project Access Now.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 70% · 2018 66% · 2019 59% · 2020 68% · 2021 71% · 2022 49% · 2023 68% — broadly stable.
“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
21% of Project Access Now's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 48% 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
Project Access Now draws 76% of its grant income from funders outside Oregon, across 6 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $100k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
