What Regional Transportation Program does
Mission
To meet the diverse transportation and mobility needs of people and communities.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Regional Transportation Program, inc. (rtp) was founded in 1976 and is designated as a 501 c (3) not-for-profit organization. Rtp's exempt purpose is to provide transportation for the handicapped, elderly and low-income individuals throughout cumberland county, maine, who, because of infirmity or location, are unable to use the mass transit service for transportation. Rtp provides transportation through two basic vehicle modes: the mini- bus/van program with taxi backup and by volunteers who use their own vehicles and are reimbursed by a mileage rate. Since rtp is designated as a regional transportation corporation supported with federal and state transit funds, the agency also provides public transportation based on availability of vehicles and funding. The mini-bus/van program is currently comprised of 30 passenger vehicles. While we were able to increase ridership over the last year and had a decent paid driver hiring pool, we still struggled with recruiting volunteer drivers. In fy 25, passenger trips amounted to 79,252 compared to 74,591 in fy 24, while passenger miles in fy 25 were 674,308 compared to 677,847 in the prior year.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2020 to 2021, from $2.7M to $5.7M (+111%).
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: 2020 78% · 2021 87% · 2022 85% · 2023 84% · 2024 81%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
82% of REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income fell $72k → $27k.
From the IRS filings of REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM’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
REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM leans on a few funders — its largest provides 100% 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
100% 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 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 99% · 2023 96% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.
