What Project Hope Ministries does
Mission
Our mission is to provide support and resources to children of poverty living in Bogota, Colombia. This includes in-country support for adoptive families, mini-grants for post adoption support, and programs that provide educational and nutritional support to children living in poverty. Project Hope conducts annual mission trips to provide awareness and services.
As stated on its FY2026 Form 990.
Programs
Project Hope was able to provide support to American families who are adopting children from Bogota, Colombia. We provided low-cost housing assistance, in-country assistance, and adoptive support for families. In addition, we provided services to local adoption agencies both domestic and in-country to assist in the placement of children ready for adoption. We worked with a number of orphanages in Colombia to provide services such as Bible programs and help with repairs and improvements of facilities. Project Hope also provides in-country housing for missionaries and mission teams who are serving the community.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 $56k to $71k (+27%).
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: 2018 0% · 2019 0% · 2020 0% · 2021 0% · 2022 4% · 2023 0% · 2024 0% · 2025 0% · 2026 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
61% of PROJECT HOPE MINISTRIES’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2022 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $8k → $0.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 96% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
PROJECT HOPE MINISTRIES leans on a few funders — its largest provides 96% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% 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 HOPE MINISTRIES.
“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
96% of PROJECT HOPE MINISTRIES's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $318 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Michigan funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $8k 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.
