What Queer Power Alliance does
Mission
Queer Power Alliance is rooted in the LGBTQIA+ community and in solidarity with other marginalized communities. We strive for equity by disrupting systems of oppression holding back LGBTQIA+ communities through advocating, educating, organizing, and building grassroots leadership for economic, housing, racial justice, and LGBTQIA+ liberation.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
HOUSING JUSTICE PROGRAM: Safe, affordable housing is essential to collective well-being. LGBTQIA+ communities face disproportionate housing discrimination, economic barriers, and instability. We organize to protect renters, strengthen community leadership, and advance policies that ensure LGBTQIA+ people can secure and sustain safe homes. Queer Power Alliance advances housing justice by organizing renters, developing community leadership, and advocating for equitable housing policy. We work to strengthen tenant protections, expand access to affordable housing, and build collective power so LGBTQIA+ people can remain rooted in their communities. Through education, leadership development, and coordinated advocacy, we equip our communities with the knowledge and tools needed to protect their rights and shape housing systems toward equity and stability.

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 2024 to 2025, from $124k to $288k (+132%).
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: 2021 52% · 2023 85% · 2024 82% · 2025 63%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
101% of Queer Power Alliance’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $6k → $85k.
5 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 17% 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 Queer Power Alliance’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
Queer Power Alliance leans on a few funders — its largest provides 80% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
97% 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 Queer Power Alliance.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 84% · 2020 83% · 2021 94% · 2022 98% · 2023 75% — 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
50% of Queer Power Alliance's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 50% 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
97% of Queer Power Alliance's grant income comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59k 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.
