What Ranchin' Vets does
Mission
The mission of Ranchin' Vets is to assist veterans in their transition from military to civilian life through a variety of programs offered within the agricultural industry.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Ranchin vets, inc. Is dedicated to empowering veterans by facilitating meaningful opportunities within the agriculture industry while providing short-term stipends if needed towards their housing, clothing or transportation needs as they transition into the agricultural industry. During the year of 2024, we are proud to report that 53 veterans received stipends. In 2024, we recorded an 18% increase in the number of veterans registering for our program. Our program connects veterans with training, resources, and employment opportunities in agricultural operations nationwide, helping them transition to civilian life with purpose and stability. Our work is strengthened by a supportive board of directors, who make up our finance committee, veteran committee and development committee. Ranchin vets continues to build upon our robust online veteran community platform created specifically for our program. Our veteran community portal allows veterans to register for our program and provides mentorship, employment, training and peer connection, adding to a sense of belonging. We remain committed to ensuring that donor contributions directly support our mission82% of our expenditures in 2024…

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $110,097.
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 2023 to 2024, from $260k to $228k (−12%).
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.
100% of RANCHIN' VETS’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (54% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income fell $15k → $8k.
2 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 62% 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
RANCHIN' VETS leans on a few funders — its largest provides 61% of grant income and the top three 95%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
79% 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 RANCHIN' VETS.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2020 99% · 2021 96% · 2022 85% · 2023 98% — 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
62% of RANCHIN' VETS'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 $33k that is directly attributable, 90% of it comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $55k 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.
Against its field
RANCHIN' VETS's revenue fell 34% between 2017 and 2024.
